Physical information Physical information Physical information is a form of information. In physics, it refers to the information of a physical system. Physical information is an important concept used in a number of fields of study in physics. For example, in quantum mechanics, the form of physical information known as quantum information is used in many descriptions of quantum phenomena, such as quantum observation, quantum entanglement and the causal relationship between quantum objects that carry out either or both close and long-range interactions with one another. In a somewhat general sense, the information of a given entity can be interpreted as its
Yukawa interaction explained by the fact that the Yukawa particle has spin zero and even spin always results in an attractive potential. The negative sign of the exponential gives the interaction an effectively finite range, so that particles at great distances will hardly interact any longer (interaction forces drop off exponentially with increasing separation). Now suppose that the potential formula_7 has a minimum not at formula_18 but at some non-zero value formula_19. This can happen, for example, with a potential form such as formula_20 with formula_9 set to an imaginary value. In this case, the Lagrangian exhibits spontaneous symmetry breaking. This is
