Unified ETCQ with α Cap: From Galaxies to Strong Lenses, and a Hint for Λ
Year: 2025
Type: article
Abstract: We propose an update of the ETCQ model (Elastic Cosmic Quantum Web), in which thegravitational response of baryons is modified by an elasticity factor bounded by the fine-structureconstant α. This bound acts as a universal cap that limits the web’s ability to store energy, ensuringa direct link between atomic physics and cosmological dynamics.
