This paper proposes a formal framework for modeling the interaction of causal and (qualitative) epistemic reasoning.

On the side of the object language, we add operators to express knowledge and the act of observing new information. We provide a sound and complete axiomatization of the logic, and discuss the relation of this framework to causal team semantics.
