New experiment could confirm the fifth state of matter in the universe

An experiment that could confirm the fifth state of matter in the universe and change physics as we know it has been published in a new paper.

Dr. Vopson's research suggests that information has mass and that all particles in the universe store information in the same way that humans do.

If the experiment is correct, he will have discovered that information is the fifth form of matter.

This would be a eureka moment because it would change physics as we know it and expand our understanding of the universe. It would not conflict with the existing laws of physics.

It does not contradict quantum mechanics, electrodynamics, thermodynamics or classical mechanics. All it does is complement physics with something new.

Information is the fundamental building block of the universe and has physical mass according to Dr. Vopson's previous research.

He thinks that information could be the dark matter that makes up a third of the universe.

How can we prove that elementary particles have a DNA of information about themselves if we assume that information is physical and mass? My latest paper is about putting these theories to the test to see if they can be taken seriously by the scientific community.

Dr. Vopson proposes to use particle-antiparticle collision to detect and measure information in an elementary particle.

The information in an electron is 22 million times smaller than the mass of it, but we can measure it.

When a particle of matter and a particle of antimatter collide, they destroy each other. When the particle is destroyed, the information from it has to go somewhere.

The final mass of the particles is converted into energy. Any particles containing information are converted into light.

In the study, Dr. Vopson predicts the exact energy of the rays.

A new field of physics research could emerge if Dr. Vopson's work proves that information is a key component of everything in the universe.
