Marabūt's Theory of Gravity: Fluid-Dynamic Reinterpretation of the Kinematic Sunyaev-Zeldovich Effect

Key Points

This paper aims to reinterpret gravity through the fluid-dynamic framework of the Electron Flow Model, challenging traditional views.
Utilized the kinematic Sunyaev-Zeldovich effect to analyze gravitational force law index on cosmological scales (30–230 Mpc).
Proposed a derivation of gravitational effects based on fluid continuity and vacuum flux without relying on invisible mass.
Interpreted pressure gradients in a dynamic cosmic ocean to develop a cohesive model of gravity.
Found the gravitational force law index to be n = 2.1 ± 0.3, reinterpreted via the Electron Flow Model as g ∝ 1/r².
Demonstrated that pressure rather than curvature provides the basis for understanding gravity at cosmic scales.
Reconciled traditional Standard Model particles with global cluster dynamics through a new hydrodynamic framework.

Abstract

The universe is not an empty void governed by invisible mass; it is a dense, dynamic, and strictly calculable cosmic ocean. The Atacama Cosmology Telescope (ACT) collaboration recently used the kinematic Sunyaev-Zeldovich (kSZ) effect to constrain the gravitational force law index on cosmological scales (30–230 Mpc), finding n = 2.1 ± 0.3. While this result is traditionally interpreted as support for ΛCDM and dark matter, we demonstrate that the observed radial dependence arises naturally in the Electron Flow Model (EFM). Treating gravity as hydrodynamic drag from bidirectional vacuum flux superposition, we derive g ∝ 1/r² directly from fluid continuity without invoking invisible mass or arbitrary acceleration thresholds. This framework reconciles the Standard Model particles with macroscopic cluster kinematics through micro-hydrodynamic lepton flux dynamics, offering a unified mechanistic alternative to both MOND and dark matter. By charting the pressure gradients of this thermodynamic medium, the Electron Flow Model provides the mechanical foundation necessary to map the true physical nature of the cosmos. The Unified Fluid Cosmos Framework: For over three centuries, dating back to Sir Isaac Newton, astrophysics has treated gravity as a static, geometric given. While Albert Einstein's General Relativity excels at calculating orbital mechanics, effectively teaching us how to drive the car, it relies on an epistemological circularity, retroactively assigning invisible mass to force its equations to fit observations. It offers no physical insight into how the engine actually works. This paper serves as Manuscript 7 Version 1 in the comprehensive series, Marabūt's Theory of Gravity. It presents the Electron Flow Model (EFM), a generative, fluid-dynamic framework designed to fundamentally replace General Relativity. The EFM shatters classical circularity with a single, undeniable foundational premise: Gravity is Pressure, not curvature, and not an intrinsic mass property.
