This paper presents an empirical analysis of raw gravitational wave strain data from the Hanford (H1) and Livingston (L1) interferometers during the hypernova event GW170817 [2.2]. By implementing a high-pass filter constraint coupled with a scaling factor (Λ = 9.61), we isolate a persistent metric resonance at the sub-Hz boundary, specifically sintonized at 0.11 Hz [2.2]. A discrete time-slice analysis (steps of 0.1 seconds) reveals a sharp transverse phase disruption—termed a metric hiatus—at t = -0.1s before coalescence [2.2]. This structural decoupling suggests that the collapsing event boundary transitions into an oscillating membrane rather than a singular point density. Furthermore, applying a Green’s Response Function mapping to the inertia of heavy atomic nuclei forged post-explosion (Fe, Au, Pb) demonstrates a stable, linear coherence index profile. The results indicate that the internal fabric of the newly formed compact object retains a structured geometric memory of its material precursors, shifting the paradigm towards mechanical metric sintonization.
