[GSMNL] Clearly Testable Prediction from Information Universe variant

The earlier discussion of double slit experiment and the Information Universe it has been assumed that the collapse of quantum wave functions occurs no latter than the detection of each photon by the detector. In fact this would seem to be what most interpretations of quantum mechanics would say. However a recent e-mail discussion of the topic has lead to possibility of the Information Universe that working along with the consciousness causes collapse interpretation of quantum mechanics. When these two interpretations are combined instead of the wave function of each photon collapsing at detection it is passed on to the wave function of the entire experiment which does not collapse until the data is actually observed by a conscious entity and it is then that the information processing of the universe determines the result each photon. This leads to a unique and very strange prediction.

 

In quantum erasure experiments entangled two photons (s & p) are used to provide a way of checking to see which of the two slit in the double slit part of the experiment a photon actually goes through. Photon-s is the one that goes through the double slit and photon-p provides the information needed to see which slit photon-s actually goes through. When this occurs the result is a double peek pattern. However if the information carried by photon-p is destroyed by a polarizer then the result is an interference pattern. Oddly enough this occurs even if photon-p passes through the polarizer after photon-s is detected.

 

Now let’s say that instead of destroying the information carried by photon-p by way of a polarizer we carry out the experiment only as depicted in image-m recording the information but not looking at it right away. Now what would happen if we then destroyed the photon-p data before we ever looked at the photon-s data? Both common sense and every other interpretation of quantum mechanics would say that we should still get the double peek. However this combined interpretation of consciousness causes wave function collapse and the Information Universe makes the bazaar prediction that we would get interference pattern. The reason for this bazaar prediction is that the information from the detection of the photon-s is only fully calculated when observed and without the photon-p data the photon-s data produces an interference pattern. The reason why the Information Universe is needed for this prediction to work is that it provides an objective way for the actual results to be determined thus making a prediction possible. Without it the conscious observer could actually be affecting the results making a prediction impossible.

 

The best way to test this prediction this is to perform a quantum erasure experiment without the polarizer to erase which ways data carried by photon-p at least 10 times. Then randomly select five photon-p data sets and destroy them. To make the experiment better do this a least three times on different media such computer hard drive, CD’s or a printout. It would also help to have multiple people as the first observer of parts of the data. If in all of the cases where the photon-p data was destroyed it produced an interference patter, while those where it was retained would produced a double peak then the prediction would be confirmed.

 

Now a failure of this would not falsify the entire Information Universe model, just the variant of it has consciousness causing the wave function collapse. However a successful prediction would confirm the combined interpretation and the basic Information Universe model.

[GSMNL] Information Universe and Consciousness.

 

http://socyberty.com/philosophy/information-universe-and-consciousness/

 

This is part ten of the Information Universe series. See the link for part one.

http://scienceray.com/physics/the-information-universe/

 

This is actually the most difficult part of this series because consciousness is hard to define. Furthermore consciousness is the one phenomenon that can not be part of the calculations of the Universe’s information processing system. While consciousness is hard to precisely define it does have some distinct properties. They are self awareness, awareness of what around you, willful though and willful action. A persons consciousness is basically another to term for the mind or soul.

 

The reason why consciousness can not be part of the calculations of the Universe’s information processing system is because that system is designed to only calculate detail information that is needed by a conscious entity as shown by the double slit experiment. Furthermore evidence has been found that synaptic activity in the brain requires quantum tunneling on demand. This tunneling has only a 1 in 10 million of occurring but yet it occurs in the brain every time it’s needed. This shows some degree of control by the mind (consciousness) of quantum wave functions this more than anything else eliminates the idea that the mind is just a by product of the brain since the brain is just part of the calculations of the Universe’s information processing system and a part that is at least partly controlled by a conscious entity. This is not strictly speaking dualism since the body is actually a calculated virtual construct that allows a conscious entity to experience and interact with the reality of this universe. In this sense the body would be much like a character a person plays in a video game that could be discarded in a similar manner when we reach game over at death.

 

Unfortunately this tells us nothing of what consciousness really is. However it does require that consciousness has to be more than a property of the brain because it can not be part of the calculations of the Universe’s information processing system since that information system seem to geared towards producing the information need to produce a consistent reality for the conscious entities that inhabit the universe. It does however allow for the possibility that the mind survives the death of the body because it requires that a conscious entity to be more than a function the brain.

 

Now to be fair this does not mean that consciousness is not also a information processing system of some type just that it’s not part of the Universe’s information processing system. It is possible that conscious minds are simply different programs with in the same over all system that simply shear information with the Universe’s information processing system. Now the Information Universe does not require conscious minds to be such information processing systems but it is consistent with it.

Regardless the ultimate nature of consciousness the main relationship between consciousness and the Information Universe is that the Universe’s information processing system exists to produce a consistent reality for conscious entities. Thus contrary to totally naturalistic claims we conscious entities are not mere by products of the universe but its reason for existing. This relationship is clearly demonstrated by the double slit experiment and in particular by the quantum erasure variety of by the double slit experiment. As a result it is not a philosophical or religious conclusion but what the data is actually telling us.

[GSMNL] Higgs boson to well behaved for particle physicists

 

http://gscim.com/Science_News/11-12/higgs_boson_to_well_behaved_for_particle_physicists.html

 

Particle physicists had hopes that the Higgs boson would open the door to expanding particle physicists beyond the standard model so as to finding identity of things such as dark matter. However much to the disappointment of particle physicists the Higgs boson has turned out to be too well behaved to give particle physicists the clues they were looking for. They have had some small false alarms in the data but have been disappointed each time. One possibility is a model called the Neutrino Minimal Standard Model (nuMSM) is supported by these results. In the nuMSM dark matter is a neutrino and the Higgs behaves in near perfect agreement with the Standard Model of Particle Physics.

 

One other model is supported by the nice behavior is the Information universe which can include the Neutrino Minimal Standard Model. This is because the the Information universe does not require any thing physical below the particle level. On the other hand short of a modification to General Relativity such as Cosmological Relativity, the Information universe still needs a model for dark matter and a model where dark matter is something as basic as a neutrino and a well behaved Higgs boson is the best fit to the Information universe.

 

This problem gets even worst for particle physicists since the Large  Hadron Collider's efforts to find new particles predicted by supersymmetry have been a total failure. Supersymmetry predicts that every known particle should have a heavier superpartner so as to extend the standard model to include dark matter and other things missing from the Standard Model of Particle Physics. Such failures another nail in the coffin for new theories such as Supersymmetry and so the conclusion is the data from the Large  Hadron Collider is ultimately providing support for the Information Universe.

[GSMNL] New Most Distant

 

http://gscim.com/Science_News/11-12/most_distant_galaxy_found.html

 

Astronomers working with the Hubble Space Telescope, and Spitzer Space Telescope have what they are calling the most distant galaxy ever discovered. This based on the redness of the object and not a full spectrum. The team studying it spent months eliminating other possible identities for the object. These possible identities including red stars, brown dwarfs, and galaxies that are red from age or dust but closer they finally came to the conclusion that a very distant galaxy was the correct explanation. The study involved 17 different filters ranging from near-ultraviolet to near-infrared and the galaxy only was seen in the two reddest filters. Its estimated distance is 13.3 billion light years away which would place it just 420 million years after the big bang is thought to have occurred which leaves vary little time to for galaxies to form, unless the Big Bang is wrong. Analysis indicates that the object is less than 600 Light Years across which is smaller than any galaxy ever observed but about the size of a globular cluster. Its estimated redshift is x =11.

Now one possibilities not mentioned in the description but suggested by the object's small size of is that this object is a globular cluster and not a galaxy. The size comparison is so obvious that it makes one wander why these it is not mentioned as one of the options eliminated. The most likely reason would be that proponents of the Big Bang expect to find small embolic galaxies and so that what it is seen as. Now to be fair if indeed this is a globular cluster it may be the largest and most distant globular cluster ever seen this fact could also have prevented them from considering it a globular cluster after all the largest known globular cluster is about 180 Light Years across. But is a 600 Light Years across globular cluster so far fetched after all it just 3.3 times the largest one near the milky way called NGC 5139. Further more if it were actually 4 billion Light Years with a large velocity relative to the Earth (0.9756c to 0.9938c depending on the angle) it would be only 180 Light Years across.

However even if this is truly a distant small galaxy it is definitely a rarity since few have been found out that far. If Galaxies are truly evenly distributed through space on a large scale then there should be many more galaxies out there than are observed particularly being able to spot one so small, even if it is by way of gravitational lensing. This fact alone is still a problem for the Big Bang.

[GSMNL] Articles on Particle physics

 

Particle Physics deals with the interactions and properties of subatomic particles. Particle physics' generally accepted model has somewhat unimaginative name of the Standard Model. Despite the successful of the Standard Model it does not quite describe everything. Developed during the mid 20th century by scientists from all over the world, the Standard Model describes 17 particles and 13 anti-particles for a total of 30 fundamental particles. Together these particle make up all of the observable matter of the universe however only 3 of them make up most of the matter of the universe.  This is relevant to origins since the decay atomic nuclei is the bases for radiometric dating. Its relationship to origins come mainly from the fact the high-energy particle physics shows the conditions the should have existed in the early universe according to the Big Bang Cosmology. In doing so it show that the Big Bang would have produced equal amounts of mater and anti-mater which posed a real problem for the Big Bang.

I have recently updated my web sites with material on Particle Physics including descriptions and illustrations of how the produced equal amounts of mater and anti-mater is a major problem for the Big Bang.

[GSMNL] Information Universe and Particle Physics

 

http://scienceray.com/physics/information-universe-and-particle-physics/

 

This is part nine of the Information Universe series. See the link for part one.

http://scienceray.com/physics/the-information-universe/

 

Particle Physics is one of many areas where the Information Universe shows it self to be an excellent theory. Since the information system of the universe is just below the fundamental particle level and it readily explains how they behave including their strange quantum properties.  The Information easily explains virtual particles. In particularly it explains how they are able to pop in and out of existence all the time. In fact in an information based universe they only need to exist as mathematical entities long enough to either transmit forces between particles or to support the existence of a field.

 

The Information Universe is particularly good at explaining how particles can interact as they do. If they were just balls of matter they would not interact frequently enough to do much of any thing. However in the Information Universe the positions interacting particles are calculated from their quantum waves so that they do interact when needed.

 

The Information Universe also readily explains the particle wave duality because the exact information on the location of a particle is not needed until it is actually observed in some manner. In an information based universe is would not be necessary to calculate the exact location of every particle unless it actually being observed by those living in that reality and in fact it would be a waste of calculating resources to do so. Until an exact state of a particle is actually needed it is only necessary to keep track of the probable states of a particle.

 

So the Information Universe not only works well with particle physics but it is in fact the best way to explain it. Further more is was particle physics in the form of the famous double slit experiment that has lead to the Information Universe idea. Furthermore it is the act of trying to determine which slit in the double slit experiment a particle goes through that shows that we have to live in an information based universe. In particular it is the quantum erasure aspect of the double slit experiment that eliminates all other possible explanations and so proving that we do in fact live in an information based universe.

[GSMNL] Information Universe and Relativity

 

http://scienceray.com/physics/information-universe-and-relativity/

 

This is part eight of the Information Universe series. See the link for part one.

http://scienceray.com/physics/the-information-universe/

 

The Information Universe works well with both Special Relativity, and General Relativity since the calculations done by the Universes information system are done to provide a reality for conscious observers observer then we would expect a given observer frame of reference to be calculated for his perspective, as such every observer frame of reference equally valid and thus no preferred frame of reference. This affect is seen in video games where what is on the screen is calculated to produce the perspective and frame of reference of the player. In multiplayer games each player has his own perspective and frame of reference so that none is special. Even if the program has a standard frame of reference for general calculations it may not be relevant or even noticeable to the players. The same thing goes for the conscious observers living in our universe.

                                          

It is also not unexpected that each conscious observer could have their own time that may or may not agree with that of others. All this is not only possible in the Information Universe but it makes a lot of sense from a programming perspective. Furthermore the differences it length observed in Special Relativity also makes sense in the Information Universe since space is just a coordinate system is the Universes information system it too could and would naturally be unique to  each conscious observer. This also explains the stretchability of space seen in General Relativity since a virtual coordinate system can be stretched, bent and other wise manipulated by the computing system since it is just numbers.

 

The really big achievement of the Information Universe in relation to Relativity theory is the reconciliation between General Relativity and Quantum mechanics by quantizing space and time into pixels. This has the further affect of eliminating any need to deal the infinite gravity that would occur at zero radiuses. Even the singularity of a black hole would have a not zero radius (1/2 Planck Length) as would a11 fundamental particles.

 

So the Information Universe works quite well with Relativity. Not only does it explain how it all works but it also reconciles General Relativity with  Quantum mechanics thus unifying physics.
