Márton Gömöri's study "On the Very Idea of Distant Correlations" has been published in Foundations of Physics. The paper points to a yet unanalyzed conceptual component of statistical correlation and shows how this aspect may give us a new way to understand the famous EPR correlations in quantum mechanics.
Balázs Gyenis' study "Determinism, Physical Possibility, and Laws of Nature" has been published in Foundations of Physics. The paper calls attention to different formulations of how physical laws relate to what is physically possible in the philosophical literature, and argue that it may be the case that determinism fails under one formulation but reigns under the other. The text is available here.
