Gravity is a clue that we live in a simulation, according to this physicist




We all know gravity as the invisible force that keeps us grounded. But what if it’s not a force at all? What if it’s a function? One physicist believes gravity might actually be one of the strongest clues that we live in a simulation.

Melvin Vopson, a physicist at the University of Portsmouth, suggests that gravity could be the by-product of the Universe behaving like a giant computer. In his new study, he proposes that gravity isn’t pulling things together at all. Instead, it is compressing information to try to keep matter organized in the most efficient way possible, just like a digital system minimizing its storage load.

According to Vopson, the Universe may be built on pixel-like units of space-time that act like digital bits: either “on” or “off” depending on whether they contain matter. When multiple particles exist in the same space, gravity forces them into one “object” to reduce computational complexity. In this view, gravity becomes a kind of algorithm, a cosmic ZIP file compressing space for maximum efficiency if you will.

This theory builds on what Vopson calls the “second law of infodynamics,” a twist on the second law of thermodynamics. While thermodynamics says entropy always increases, infodynamics suggests that information entropy can decrease. That’s a significant shift, and it aligns more with the behavior of simulations than traditional physical systems.

Vopson has also argued in past research that information might have mass and behave like physical property, implying that data isn’t just abstract but material. In this framework, elementary particles serve as data storage units, similar to how DNA stores biological information. He’s even claimed to have found the universe’s source code.

These ideas don’t prove we’re living in a simulation. However, they do present compelling clues that we live in a simulation. After all, gravity remains one of the biggest mysteries in physics. We can measure it, model it, and account for its effects, but we still don’t fully understand why it works the way it does.

By exploring alternative frameworks like viewing gravity as a tool for data optimization we may get closer to answering that question. And if the Universe really is running on code, gravity might be one of the first signs we’ve been looking at all along.

Physicists observe a new form of magnetism for the first time

MIT physicists have demonstrated a new form of magnetism that could one day be harnessed to build faster, denser, and less power-hungry " spintronic " memory chips. The new magnetic state is a mash-up of two main forms of magnetism: the ferromagnetism of everyday fridge magnets and compass needles, and antiferromagnetism, in which materials have magnetic properties at the microscale yet are not macroscopically magnetized. Now, the MIT team has demonstrated a new form of magnetism , termed "p-wave magnetism." Physicists have long observed that electrons of atoms in regular ferromagnets share the same orientation of "spin," like so many tiny compasses pointing in the same direction. This spin alignment generates a magnetic field, which gives a ferromagnet its inherent magnetism. Electrons belonging to magnetic atoms in an antiferromagnet also have spin, although these spins alternate, with electrons orbiting neighboring atoms aligning their spins antiparalle...

Freezing light? Italian scientists froze fastest thing in universe, here’s how

In a rare occurrence, physics made it possible to control the fastest travelling element - light. Italian scientists have managed to freeze the light, as per reports. A recent study published in a British weekly journal reportedly revealed that light can exhibit ‘ supersolid behavior ’ a unique state of matter that flows without friction while retaining a solid-like structure. The research, led by Antonio Gianfate from CNR Nanotec and Davide Nigro from the University of Pavia, marks a significant step in understanding supersolidity in light. The scientists described their findings as “just the beginning” of this exploration, as per reports. In what can be termed as ‘manipulating photons under controlled quantum conditions ’, the scientists demonstrated that light, too, can exhibit this behaviour. (A photon is a bundle of electromagnetic energy which is massless, and travel at the speed of light) How did scientists freeze light? As we know, freezing involves lowering a liquid’s tempera...
