GRAVITY AND DISORDER. “Entropy and gravitation come together in Jacobson’s idea of gravitational thermodynamics. Essentially Jacobson proposes that gravity is simply a consequence of disorder as quantified by entropy.” https://www.mdpi.com/1099-4300/21/11/1035/htm View in LinkedIn

FIXING THE MODEL. “These apparent shortcomings of ΛCDM motivated the author and his collaborators to construct the Modified Dark Matter (MDM), a phenomenological dark matter model inspired by the consideration of entropy and gravitation.” (ΛCDM = the standard cosmological model). https://www.mdpi.com/1099-4300/21/11/1035/htm View in LinkedIn

MODEL PROBLEMS. “The standard cosmological model, ΛCDM, has been very successful. But aside from the fact that dark matter particles have not been (directly) detected, this model suffers some noticeable shortcomings, such as missing satellite problem, core/cusp problem, too-big-to-fail problem, to name just a few.” (ΛCDM = the standard cosmological model). https://www.mdpi.com/1099-4300/21/11/1035/htm View in LinkedIn

DARK ENERGY VS BARYONIC MATTER. “We conclude (at least are led to speculate) that the “particles” constituting dark energy obey infinite statistics, rather than the familiar Fermi or Bose statistics. This is the over-riding difference between dark energy and conventional matter. Note that here it is the physical non-negativity requirement of entropy for a gravitational system that leads to this unexpected conclusion.” https://www.mdpi.com/1099-4300/21/11/1035/htm View in LinkedIn

DARK ENERGY QUANTA. “According to the holographic spacetime foam model, the constituents of dark energy are quanta/“particles” with very long wavelengths.” https://www.mdpi.com/1099-4300/21/11/1035/htm View in LinkedIn

The truly extraordinary Art Nouveau Hospital de la Santa Creu i Sant Pau in Bacelona, near to the Gaudi basilica of Sagrada Familia, is a complex built between 1901 and 1930, composed of 12 pavilions and 26 buildings connected through long undergound tunnels within its massive green campus. https://lnkd.in/ewbHgFW7 View in LinkedIn

CREATIVE MACHINES. “And suddenly we noticed that one of the neurons was tracking faces. It was tracking our faces as we were moving around. Now, the spooky thing about this is that we never trained the system to recognize human faces and yet, somehow, it learned to do that. Even though these robots are very simple, we can see that something else is going on there. It is not just programming.” (Professor Hod Lipson). https://link.springer.com/chapter/10.1007/978-3-030-03633-1_14 View in LinkedIn

QED. “We conclude that a dark sector indeed exists in the Universe!” https://www.mdpi.com/1099-4300/21/11/1035/htm View in LinkedIn

THE IMPLICATION. “Thus, there must be other kinds of matter/energy with which the Universe can map out its spacetime geometry to a finer spatial accuracy than is possible with the use of conventional ordinary matter.” https://www.mdpi.com/1099-4300/21/11/1035/htm View in LinkedIn

READ CAREFULLY. “Our analysis of the Salecker-Wigner type of gedanken experiments and implied by the holographic principle: it is now apparent that ordinary matter contains only an amount of information dense enough to map out spacetime at a level with much coarser spatial resolution.” https://www.mdpi.com/1099-4300/21/11/1035/htm View in LinkedIn
