Abstract
This paper proposes that the Standard Model [4] [5] and Einstein’s general relativity theory can be unified by introducing probabilities similar to the field of information theory developed by Claude Shannon [16] and others. Accurate estimates regarding the number of neutrons in the universe are now available due to the WMAP [8] project. The author noted that there are approximately the natural number e (2.71828) to the power 180 (exp(N)) protons in the universe (Technical endnote 1) and explored the possibility that the number is fundamental to physics. Considering the probability of one neutron as 1/exp(180) a “top-down” model lead to a direct calculation of the gravitational constant and a uniform method of evaluating fundamental forces.
