Book: The Physics of Information
By F. ALEXANDER BAIS AND J. DOYNE FARMER 1 The notion of information as used by Shannon is a generalization of the notion of entropy, which first appeared in thermodynamics. In thermodynamics entropy is an abstract quantity depending on heat and temperature whose interpretation is not obvious. . . . . It turns out that the concept of entropy or equivalently information is useful in many applications that have nothing to do with physics. 3 It also turns out that thinking in these more general terms is useful for physics. For example, Shannon's work makes it clear that entropy is in some sense more fundamental than the quantities from which it was originally derived. http://arxiv.org/pdf/0708.2837v2.pdf My comment. The conception of entropy appears in every chapter of this book. The mathematician John von Neumann said to "the father of information theory" Claude Shannon: " Name it "entropy" then in discussions you will receive solid advantage, because nobody knows, what "entropy" basically is ". And the Nobel laureate in chemistry 1909 Wilhelm Ostwald said that the entropy is only a shadow of energy. If we don’t know what entropy is, then today’s theory of information is only a shadow of the future theory of information. ==========.. |

‘Can energy and information be identified ? ‘
ask Carl Friedrich von Weizsacker in his book: The unity of Nature. Page 282. Carl Friedrich von Weizsäcker - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia And on the page 290 – 291 he wrote: ‘ Mass is information.’ And on the page 292 he wrote: ‘ Energy is information.’ =========. My opinion. What is information from Quantum’s Theory point of view ? From Quantum’s Theory point of view ‘information’ must be some smallest bit / quantum of information. But physicists in our world ( according to QED ) use only one particle – electron to transfer information. They don’t use any another particles ( quark, muon, meson, tau, . . . etc ) Therefore I say: ‘ The smallest bit / quantum of information is electron with energy: E=h*f. ‘ ===. |

DNA – Information - Evolution.
Carl Friedrich von Weizsacker in his book: ‘ The unity of Nature ‘ tried to understand the interaction between information and DNA. He wrote: ‘ Organisms control their own growth by means of the genetic information stored in the DNA molecules, . . . ‘ / page 281 / ‘ . . . the amount of information contained in the DNA . . . . is the information corresponding to the concept ‘ genetic constitution’. / page 281 / DNA is indeed the carrier of the genetic constitution. / page 282 / # My question. How does DNA "draw" the shape of a human? To draw the shape of a child from zygote DNA must know physics, mathematics, geometry . . . etc. How is possible to understand that DNA knows all these subjects? If the child was born intelligent then it means that DNA knows physics, mathematics, geometry and . . . etc. # My question. Where does DNA fit into the evolution debate? DNA information is not static information. DNA information is dealing with ‘ flow of information.’ DNA information is dealing with ‘progressive information.’ DNA information can evolve. DNA information evolves from zygote to the intelligent child. # Our body is a multi-cellular organism made up of perhaps 100 trillion different cells. ‘ The information content in the nucleus of a single human cell is comparable to that of a library containing a thousand volumes.’ / The unity of Nature, page 40. / Question: How can 100 trillion different cells (100 trillion libraries with a thousand volumes in each) create a child ( by the chance ) during 9 months if according to the probability theory it is impossible? # Today scientists think that everything begins from ‘Big Bang’. And according to ‘big bang’ our Universe exist 13 (+) billion years. My question : Is it possible to create a child from cell [ zygote] only in 280 days according to Probability theory? If " yes "it will be take time not 280 days but it will be take time more than our Universe exist and then ,maybe, the pregnancy woman was before the ‘ big bang’. If ‘ no’ then the process must have aim. It means somebody /something must manage this process. ===. Best wishes. Israel Sadovnik. Socratus. ========. |

If DNA contains code - instructions - bits, it means that DNA knows physics, chemistry, mathematics, geometry . . . etc. 2 If the reason of evolution is ' by chance ' ( by the DNA chance ) then before was a pregnant woman who gave life to a child who invented the ‘ big bang’ theory. ===. |

But still, what you propose is wrong in two completely different
respects, both showing a fundamental lack of understanding. First, that there are a lot of cells in the human body, perhaps 100 trillion, is irrelevant to the information content since the DNA in all of these is essentially the same. So 100 trillion libraries is no different from one library if you choose to use that very unhelpful metaphor for what DNA constitutes. / Richard Norman / the DNA in all of these is essentially the same. / Richard Norman / Maybe ‘the DNA in all of these is essentially the same.’ But cells come in all shapes and sizes . Socratus # Second, I already said that probability theory in no way says that the development of a human child in nine months from a single fertilized egg is impossible. Therefore the existence of such a child does not at all mean somebody/something must be managing it. / Richard Norman / It is your opinion or law that probability theory doesn’t work in biology ( cells ) and in astrophysics ( big bang ). Socratus Actually there is something that does manage it: the workings out of the machinery of biochemistry and biophysics and molecular biology and developmental biology. / Richard Norman / Cells make copies of themselves,. . . Different cells make different copies of themselves,. . . Cells come in all shapes and sizes . . . . Somehow these different cells are tied between themselves and during pregnancy process of 9 months gradually ( ! ) and by chance ( ! ) they change own geometrical form from zygote to a child. Cells come in all shapes and sizes, and then . . . they are you ( !? ) This is modern biomechanical /chemical point of view. Socratus ==. |

Maybe 99% agree that ‘Cells - they are you .’
But this explanation is not complete. Cells have an energy / electrical potential. Cells have an electromagnetic field. Therefore we need to say: ‘ Cells and electromagnetic field - they are you.’ ===. Is this formulation correct? ==. |

Cells make copies of themselves.
Different cells make different copies of themselves. Cells come in all shapes and sizes. Somehow these different cells are tied between themselves and during pregnancy process of 9 months gradually ( ! ) and by chance ( or not by chance ) they change own geometrical form from zygote to a child. Cells come in all shapes and sizes, and then . . . they are you. Cells they are you ( !? ) This is modern biomechanical /chemical point of view. # Maybe 99% agree that ‘Cells - they are you .’ But this explanation is not complete. Cells have an energy / electrical potential. Cells have an electromagnetic field. Therefore we need to say: ‘ Cells and electromagnetic field - they are you.’ ===. Is this formulation correct? Of course it is correct. Why? Because: Bioelectromagnetism (sometimes equated with bioelectricity) refers to the electrical, magnetic or electromagnetic fields produced by living cells, tissues or organisms. Bioelectromagnetism - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia What does it mean? It means there isn’t biological cell without electromagnetic fields. It means that in the cell we have two ( 2 ) substances: matter and electromagnetic fields. And in 1985 Richard P. Feynman wrote book: QED: The Strange Theory of Light and Matter The idea of book - the interaction between light ( electromagnetic fields ) and matter is strange. He wrote: ‘ The theory of quantum electrodynamics describes Nature as absurd from the point of view of common sense. And it agrees fully with experiment. So I hope you accept Nature as She is — absurd. ‘ / page 10. / # Once again: 1. Cells and electromagnetic field - they are you. 2. We cannot understand their interaction and therefore we don’t know the answer to the question: ‘ who am I ?’ ===. Socratus. |

Quantum electrodynamics: Who am I ?
==. Can QED give the answer to the question: ‘ Who am I ? ’ To answer to this question allow me to take one biological cell. The cell has two ( 2 ) substances: matter and electromagnetic fields. Then we need to understand : Where did the matter and electromagnetic fields come from? Question: Do we need to search for two sources or enough one source ? # Matter and electromagnetic fields are some kind of energy. But matter and energy were tied in one formula: E=Mc^2. Therefore I will unite matter, energy and electromagnetic fields in one simple question: Where does E=Mc^2 come from ? We have many sources of E=Mc^2: F. Hasenohrl, A. Einstein, P. Dirac. ====. Socratus. |

One postulate says:
In vacuum the speed of quantum of light is constant. It is correct that ‘a vacuum doesn't have a measurable rest frame’. Why? Because in vacuum the speed of quantum of light is maximum and time is stopped, become infinite, unlimited. It means that the reference frame of vacuum is also infinite, unlimited. And infinity we cannot measure. But this doesn’t mean that infinite vacuum doesn’t exist. We have theories ( thermodynamics and quantum physics) which explain us the parameters of infinite vacuum. # If we measure the speed of quantum of light in vacuum from different inertial frames the result will be the *same* - constant. Why? Because all different inertial frames ( stars and planets of billions and billions galaxies ) exist in infinite motionless, stationary, fixed (rest) reference frame of Vacuum. Socratus === |
