Physical Processes

Definition

Physical Processes are Processes that occur / manifest in the physical domain of Nature. They can be intended as organized sets / networks of Physical Events, of Physical Action, variations, mutations of Physical Acted / Fields operated by Physical Agents / Forces, in the context of Physical Agency.

Physical Processes, together with Physical Principles, are the answer to the question "why and how what exists (Physical Entities) produces what happens in the way it happens (Physical Events and Physical Relations)?". They are the back bone of the Dynamics of Physical Reality. They describe why and how things happens in the Physical Reality, from the most elementary levels to the more complex ones, how Physical Reality (or part of it) manifests itself, how is incessantly (re)-created and evolves. Everything that exists is "made" of / by Physical Processes of Events produced by Physical Entities and organized by Physical Relations.

So, we find Physical Processes in different forms in the various domains of Reality (physical, cognitive and metacognitive), in relation with all the Dimensions of Physical Reality (Physical Causality and [Physical [Variationality]]: Physical Spatiality and Physical Temporality) and at the various levels of complexity of Physical Reality. Processes that describe the Process of Formation of Physical Reality, the manifestation, the ways of expression of the Operators of Physical Reality.

Common definition

In general, a process is a network of related changes, activities or actions. Depending on the context, the term process can take on different meanings and nuances.
