Dark Matter as Information in the Dark: Galaxy Rotation Curves from the Information-Theoretic Logos

Description

Seventy years of dark matter searches have found noWIMP,no axion, and no particle candidate. The Information-Theoretic
Logos (ITL) framework [1, 2, 3, 4, 5] identifies dark matter as information that is between the quantum chunks — not passing through the center. In the ITL quantum event lifecycle [6], information that passes through the center of a quantum chunk
resolves into mass, charge, and being. Information that does not pass through center has no mass, no charge, no being — it
is in the dark. But the quantum field bends around it. Gravity occurs at entry, before resolution. Dark matter is gravitation
ally present but otherwise invisible — not because it is made of exotic particles, but because it never resolved. We derive the acceleration threshold below which the dark fraction becomes gravitationally significant: a0 = cH0/π3/2 = 1.191 × 10−10m/s2, within 0.75% of the em pirically measured MOND acceleration aMOND 0= 1.2 × 10−10 m/s2, from zero free parameters. The geometric correction from 1D to 2D spherical propagation on the holographic screen closes the 12% deviation of the original derivation. Dark matter does not cluster because unresolved information has no “I am” — nothing to entangle, nothing to bind (Section 2.10 of [8]). It remains diffuse. This explains halos, the Bullet Cluster, and the absence of dark matter structure. Wefurther apply the framework to Jupiter: its extraordinarily strong magnetic field and its recently discovered fuzzy core are naturally explained as the projection field of metallic hydrogen (a vast resolution zone) and the continuous resolution
gradient from center to surface
