Theoretical model reveals dark matter displacement by luminous bodies as the source of cosmic expansion, suggesting an alternative framework for dark energy and vacuum physics.
This paper proposes a revolutionary physical and cosmological framework that inverts the conventional perspective on the nature of light, darkness, and vacuum. Contrary to the Standard Model, which defines darkness as a mere absence of photons, this study hypothesizes that "Darkness" is an active, dense, and pervasive substance (identified as Dark Matter) that occupies the cosmic vacuum as a material veil. In contrast, "Light" is defined as an intrinsic, fixed primordial state (Intrinsic Substrate) existing "behind" this material veil. Within this "Displacement Theory," luminous sources (e.g., stars) do not emit particles; instead, they function as "Displacement Engines" that mechanically expel the dense dark matter at a constant velocity (c ≈ 300,000 km/s), thereby revealing the underlying intrinsic light and "tinting" it according to the source's spectral properties. Furthermore, this model provides a novel mechanical explanation for Dark Energy; the displaced dark matter accumulates in cosmic voids, creating an "Accumulation Pressure" that drives the accelerated expansion of the universe. This hypothesis offers a new path to resolving long-standing enigmas in modern physics by recontextualizing the vacuum not as an empty void, but as a dynamic material medium.
