This analysis proposes a scaling law to resolve the cosmological constant issue, indicating implications for dark energy.

To address the discrepancy between predicted and observed values of the cosmological constant using a phenomenological scaling law.
Introduce a scaling law based on dynamic vacuum tension (DVT) and general relativity.
Model spacetime as an elastic manifold adhering to the maximum tension principle.
Conduct a quantitative calibration using CODATA 2018 fundamental constants.
Derive a theoretical value of ΛDVT ≈ 1.105 × 10−52 m−2.
Achieve striking agreement with the empirically inferred value from the Planck 2018 mission.
Demonstrate that dark energy is a geometric signature of spacetime rather than a particle-physics phenomenon.
