Abstract

This technical proposal presents the Vortex Framework (VF), a fluid-mechanical interpretation of gravity. It derives the gravitational constant G and the speed of light c using a Logarithmic Quintic Nonlinear Schrödinger Equation. It specifically addresses the 'Feeding-Stripping Paradox' in jellyfish galaxies using the 0.707c refractive threshold.
