Elasticity of the Quantum Cosmic Lattice (ETCQ)An effective framework for gravityTon NomSeptember 27, 2025AbstractWe present the ETCQ (Elasticity of the Quantum Cosmic Lattice), an effectivelaw of gravity based on the universal rigidity of the quantum vacuum. In this frame-work, baryons do not exert direct Newtonian attraction, but inject energy into aquantum lattice that absorbs, saturates, and then expels energy as a diluted flux∝ 1/R2. Newtonian gravity emerges as an effective description of this accumula-tion–saturation–diffusion process. The same constants, fixed once on the SPARCHQ++ sample, reproduce galaxy rotation curves, satellite dynamics, Solar Systemorbits, strong-lens time delays, and the observed dark-energy density.
