Information Mechanics

Abstract

A unifying theory is put forward that entropy is equal to action. The crowning derivation is based on information theoretic methods and uses our hypothesis that "particles move via the discrete Bernoulli Process." While this hypothesis matches special relativity for the mean value of a particle's location, the variance appears to open the possibility of new physics. Specifically, the variance is dependent on the square of the particle's velocity and since no reference frame is given, we ask if this velocity is absolute and measurable. To answer this question, we conducted an experiment to measure the jitter on a clock and found a combined 26 sigma three-spike signal in the Fourier Transform of the jitter's magnitude. These spikes are predicted by the hypothesis since the laboratory's velocity fluctuates due to the Earth revolving and rotating as the solar system moves through the Universe. When analyzing the phase and magnitude, the data suggests the velocity of the laboratory is a validation of the Planck collaboration which measured the same velocity of Earth in the Cosmic Microwave Background reference frame. Lastly, a second experiment is underway to ratify these findings.
