The approach I take is twofold: On the one hand, I develop a semantics of experimental results that seeks to show the dependence of experimental results upon theoretical knowledge and how this can be used as a conceptual way out of the experimenters' regress. On the other hand, I review, discuss, and propose an alternative reading to the cases studies Collins proposes as evidence of the external resolution of the experimenters' regress.application/pdfengcc-by-nc-nd, (c) Zuppone,, 2018http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/3.0/Filosofia de la ciènciaCiències experimentalsPhilosophy of scienceExperimental sciencesinfo:eu-repo/semantics/doctoralThesis2019-01-15info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccesshttp://hdl.handle.net/10803/664830
