Nanohertz gravitational waves from QCD confinement: A zero-parameter prediction of the vacuum-matter coupling Manuscript submitted for publication on Apr 19 2026.
Nature Astronomy Manuscript ID: NATASTRON-26040617.
The provided sources describe the Local Gravity of Quantum Vacuum αLGQV a theoretical framework that explains dark energy and dark matter using established nuclear physics rather than exotic particles.
Lead researcher Boris Kriger proposes that a single zero-parameter coupling constant derived from QCD sigma terms can account for galactic rotation curves and the cosmological constant.
A key application of this theory predicts a stochastic gravitational-wave background originating from the early universes QCD confinement transition.
This prediction aligns closely with the nanohertz signal recently observed by the NANOGrav collaboration offering a better spectral match than traditional black hole models.
By connecting disparate findings from nuclear physics and cosmology the framework suggests that the hum of the universe is a relic of quarks becoming confined within protons and neutrons.
The researchers emphasize that their results are based on textbook data and present a falsifiable alternative to standard dark sector theories. Kriger B.
