On Definitions of Information in Physics

Information is physically measurable as a selection from a set of possibilities, the domain of information. This defines the term "information". The domain of the information must be known together reproducibly beforehand. As a practical consequence, digital information exchange can be made globally efficient, interoperable, and searchable to a large extent by online definition of application-optimized domains of information. There are even more far-reaching consequences for physics. The purpose of this article is to present prerequisites and possibilities for a physical approach that is consistent with the precise definition of information. This concerns not only the discretization of the sets of possible experimental results but also the order of their definition over time. The access to or comparison with the domain of information is more frequent, the earlier it was defined. The geometrical appearance of our space is apparently a delayed statistical consequence of a very frequent connection with the common primary domain of information.

Information always moves according to mass/matter flow dictated by energy. Does the definition of information vector depend solely on mass and energy, or is it dependable on something more? The amount of information and maximum packaging in the finite thermodynamic system by Kolmogorov complexity theorem and Shannon's definition of the amount of information are the basis for this research. At first, information seems as an abstract entity completely separated from the physical world. However, when information is transmitted, it must be recorded by a receiver using energy and reading it from a mass equilibrium entropy state. The majority of research works is based heavily on the definition of information and transmission without interference from other channels and/or information packages. However, in this article, we develop a relationship between energy, mass, and information as physics properties. First was Landauer who stated that “Information is physical,” and using this principle, this article presents a model for quantum information transmission via mass and energy. Here, we show a model for information transmission via energy/mass to transfer information by preserving information quality.

Although quantum physics has led to the most accurate predictions to date about the nature of matter and the universe, a metaphysical interpretation of its non-deterministic and subjective nature still remains an ongoing debate. In this work, we will review the nature of the debate and propose a new way to address the controversies about the non-deterministic and subjective nature of quantum physics. In our previous work, we have shown that everything is made of information, energy and matter. We propose to define spirit or soul as the content of information, spiritual heart as the receiver of information, and mind as the processor of information. In this paper, we show that the intrinsic uncertain and non-deterministic nature of quantum physics can be explained by the insights from these definitions. Information relates to the possibilities and potentialities of an object. Information is intrinsically uncertain and non-deterministic. Since quantum physics is the fundamental physics theory describing the information, energy and matter of everything, quantum physics has intrinsic an uncertain and non-deterministic nature. We further demonstrate that the process of quantum measurement can be interpreted as the role played by soul, spiritual heart and mind in the manifestation of physical phenomena. We conclude that our insight that everything is made of information, energy and matter and the definition of soul, spiritual heart and mind provides a simple metaphysical interpretation of quantum physics. They can help us understand and resolve the two controversies about quantum physics.
