Cosmological Redshift. An Information Mechanics Perspective

Abstract

A photon's observed wavelength tells an astronomical detector about the amount of position information obtained by observing that photon. This amount of position information may depend on time in a way which, to first order over distances small compared to the size of the universe, might account for the cosmological redshift.
