Within the field of exophysics, entropic physics (also known as entropics) is the study of entropic charge (χ) held within Karl-Koleshiv particles (K-particles), and the pocket dimension known as the entropic plane that acts as their source. It also covers entropic radiation (E-rad), the emission or transmission of entropic charge moving through space. Both the term and the field were coined by Karl Becker and Antony Koleshiv.

History

Early research

Nevrin was the first organisation to research entropics during the late 1900s, after accidentally opening a bridge to the entropic plane using the prototype Avernus Cavity Reactor located in the Girvan Offshore Science Facility (GOSF). They lacked fine understanding of the properties of entropics, including the existence of K-particles, and performed early, reckless experimentation by bombarding different objects and even living organisms with entropic radiation, which eventually resulted in the containment breach that forced the sealing of the facility and caused knock-on consequences that resulted in the collapse of the company itself.

Public research

Karl Becker, a medical physicist and survivor of the Island Containment Breach, was originally tasked with finding novel ways to treat victims of E-rad exposure after numerous scientists became exposed to radiation in experiments at the GOSF. After the breach, he managed to complete his paper on E-rad exposure treatment, but it was rejected by journals, who believed the physics he cited to be fictional. In 2003, he flew to Ukraine, sharing his findings with Antony Koleshiv, a theoretical physicist at the Kharkiv Institute of Physics and Technology. The duo collaborated over the subsequent decade, attempting to share their findings with the wider scientific community, but they were repeatedly dismissed as crackpots.

The release of their co-authored paper on the Karl-Koleshiv particle in 2014, endorsed by the Kharkiv Institute, divided the scientific community. This release drew the attention of both the Aegis Institute and Evan Grey's secretive DCI-SS Unit inside Küiser Laboratories, the inheritors of Nevrin's scientific knowledge. The two organisations worked to attempt to discredit the duo's paper, but were too late to prevent it from being published. In 2019, CERN agreed to perform the first experiments to prove K-particles existed. Robust theories on entropics acted as the missing puzzle piece for bridge theory, and would go on to enable the first bridge laboratory to be built a few decades later.
