The St Cross Centre for the History and Philosophy of Physics (HAPP) was founded in 2014 and, to celebrate a decade of discussion and debate, HAPP published its 10th Anniversary Commemorative Volume.
The HAPP Centre was established to provide a forum in which the philosophy and methodologies that inform how current research in physics is undertaken would be included alongside the history of the discipline in an accessible way that could engage the general public as well as scientists, historians and philosophers.
The HAPP 10th Anniversary Commemorative Volume is structured around four key overarching themes which encompass the HAPP papers in it: physicists across history; space and astronomy; philosophical perspectives; and concepts in physics. The thematic papers derive from talks given at the HAPP termly one-day conferences and from standalone lectures and seminars as well as from the discussion panels which took place online during the pandemic period.
