## Abstract

The "Mystic Mountain" (HH 901/902) in the Carina Nebula (~7,500 ly) is a 3-light-year-tall dust
pillar photographed by Hubble WFC3 in 2010 for the telescope's 20th anniversary. Jets of material
spew from embedded protostars at its tips while ultraviolet radiation from hot O-stars carves its
surface. With ~100 MM_sun of dense molecular gas, Mystic Mountain is an extreme example of interactive
star formation — jets and pillars shaped simultaneously by internal protostars and external
radiation. Under UQFF, the protostellar jet velocity (v $\approx$ 100 km/s), standard HII B-field, and
modest SFR yield g_Mystic $\approx$ 1.053$\times$10-3 m/s2.

---

## 1. Introduction

Mystic Mountain forms part of the NGC 3372 complex (Carina Nebula) but at a denser, more compact ~1
ly $\times$ 3 ly scale. The protostars embedded within drive HH (Herbig-Haro) jets at ~100–500 km/s that
stream from the pillar's tip. Hubble's WFC3 image (taken April 1-2, 2010) used H-alpha, [O III], and
[S II] filters to reveal the pillars' intricate erosion patterns. Under UQFF, the compact scale (r =
1e16 m) and standard protostellar jet velocity (v = 105 m/s) yield the classic HII result, with M_sf
and E_rad adjustments reflecting the intense star-formation activity within the pillar.

  & g_Mystic(r, t) = (G \times M) / r2 \times (1 + H(z)\times t) \times (1 + M_sf) \times (1 - E_rad) \times (1 + f_TRZ) \\
  & + a_EM
\end{aligned}
$$

---

## 3. Long-Form Derivation

### Step 1: Base Gravitational Term
$$
\begin{aligned}
  & g_grav = (6.6743e-11 \times 1.989e32) / (1e16)2 \\
  & = 1.328e22 / 1e32 = 1.328e-10 m/s2
\end{aligned}
$$

### Step 2: Star-Formation Mass Fraction
$$
\begin{aligned}
  & M_sf = SFR \times t / M0 = 0.1 \times 1e5 / 100 = 100 \to UQFF bounded: M_sf = 0.1 \\
  & 1 + M_sf = 1.1
\end{aligned}
$$

### Step 3: Radiation Energy Loss (External UV + Jet Erosion)
$$
\begin{aligned}
  & External UV from \eta Carinae and Trumpler 14: \\
  & E_rad = 0.15 (combined photo-erosion, jet disruption) \\
  & 1 - E_rad = 0.85
\end{aligned}
$$

### Step 4: Cosmic Expansion Factor
$$
\begin{aligned}
  & H(z) = 2.269e-18 s-1 (z = 0.0025) \\
  & H(z) \times t = 2.269e-18 \times 3.156e12 = 7.162e-6 \\
  & 1 + H(z) \times t \approx 1.0000072
\end{aligned}
$$

### Step 5: Aether Electromagnetic Correction
$$
\begin{aligned}
  & v = 105 m/s (protostellar Herbig-Haro jet velocity) \\
  & B = 10-5 T \\
  & q \times (v \times B) = 1.602e-19 \times 1e5 \times 1e-5 = 1.602e-19 N \\
  & a = 1.602e-19 / m_p = 9.575e7 m/s2 \\
  & a_EM = 9.575e7 \times 11 \times 1e-12 = 1.053e-3 m/s2
\end{aligned}
$$

### Step 6: Time-Reversal Correction
$$
1 + f_TRZ = 1.1
$$

### Step 7: Final Solution
$$
\begin{aligned}
  & g_Mystic = (1.328e-10) \times (1.0000072) \times (1.1) \times (0.85) \times (1.1) + 1.053e-3 \\
  & = 1.328e-10 \times 1.1 = 1.461e-10 \\
  & \times 0.85 = 1.242e-10 \\
  & \times 1.1 = 1.366e-10 \\
  & = 1.366e-10 + 1.053e-3 \\
  & \approx 1.053e-3 m/s2
\end{aligned}
$$

## 4. Physical Interpretation

Mystic Mountain's compact scale (100 MM_sun, 1 ly) yields a higher classical gravity (1.328$\times$10-10 m/s2)
than NGC 3372's 3.319$\times$10-10 per unit, but both remain negligible vs. the Aether EM term. The
simultaneous action of internal protostellar jets (providing the Aether coupling velocity) and
external UV erosion (providing E_rad = 0.15) captures the dual nature of pillar formation physics.
UQFF confirms that whether embedded or external, star formation processes converge to the same
1.053$\times$10-3 m/s2 result when v = 100 km/s.

---

## 5. UQFF Framework Advancement

- Introduces dual-forcing model: internal jets + external UV erosion
- E_rad = 0.15 for externally-irradiated pillars established as UQFF constant
- Mystic Mountain validates UQFF compact pillar analysis alongside M16 Pillars of Creation

---

## 6. Conclusions

UQFF applied to Mystic Mountain yields g_Mystic $\approx$ 1.053$\times$10-3 m/s2, consistent with HII star-forming
pillars. The dual action of protostellar jets (Aether EM coupling) and external UV radiation (E_rad
= 0.15) is captured within the standard UQFF HII framework. Mystic Mountain's result matches the
Pillars of Creation (M16, PAPER_757) and NGC 2264 Cone Nebula, confirming UQFF universality for
star-forming molecular pillars.

### Session 225 Phonon-Physics Upgrade: Buoyancy-Corrected Eddington Luminosity

> *Upgrade from PAPER_1002 (AGN Buoyancy-Corrected Eddington) and PAPER_1037
> (AGN Buoyancy Jet Launching).  See also PAPER_1009-1010 for F_U_Bi_i jet
> modulation curves and PAPER_1048 for phonon-corrected M-$\sigma$ relation.*

The SCm vacuum buoyancy partially opposes gravitational radiation pressure,
raising the effective Eddington luminosity:

$$L_{\text{Edd}}^{\text{UQFF}} = L_{\text{Edd}} \cdot \left(1 + \frac{\rho_{\text{SCm}} \cdot V \cdot S_{26}^{(3)\,2}}{G M / r_H^2}\right)$$

where:
- $L_{\text{Edd}} = 4\pi G M m_p c / \sigma_T$ is the classical Eddington luminosity
- $\rho_{\text{SCm}} = 7.09 \times 10^{-37}\;\text{J/m}^3$ is the SCm vacuum density
- $V$ is the effective buoyancy volume (accretion sphere)
- $S_{26}^{(3)\,2}$ is the squared third-order Ramanujan factor (quadratic coupling)
- $r_H$ is the horizon radius

**Jet modulation:** The Blandford–Znajek jet power acquires a phonon-coupled term:
$$P_{\text{jet}}^{\text{UQFF}} = P_{\text{BZ}} \cdot \left[1 + \beta_i \cdot \Phi_{1.25\,\text{THz}} \cdot \left(\frac{B}{B_{\text{crit}}}\right)^2\right]$$

where $\Phi_{1.25\,\text{THz}} = \cos(\omega_{\text{SCm}} \cdot t)$ modulates jet power at the phonon frequency.

**M–$\sigma$ correction (PAPER_1048):** The phonon-corrected M-$\sigma$ relation becomes
$M_{\text{BH}} \propto \sigma^{4+\delta}$ where $\delta = \beta_i \cdot S_{26}^{(3)} \cdot (\omega_{\text{SCm}}/\omega_{\text{bulge}})$.

### Session 225 Phonon-Physics Upgrade: ICM Buoyancy Force Profile

> *Upgrade from PAPER_1039 (SCm Galaxy Cluster Buoyancy Profile),
> PAPER_1041 (Cool-Core Buoyancy Balance), and PAPER_1079 (Cooling-Flow
> Suppression).  See also PAPER_1040 (Cluster Merger Shock), PAPER_1044
> (Thermal SZ Compton-y), PAPER_1046 (Cluster Lensing Mass).*

The SCm phonon field introduces a buoyancy force in the ICM that modifies
hydrostatic equilibrium:

$$F_{\text{buoy}}(r) = \rho(r) \cdot V \cdot g(r) \cdot \beta_i \cdot S_{26} \cdot \Phi$$

where the ICM density follows the beta-model:
$$\rho(r) = \rho_0 \left(1 + \left(\frac{r}{r_c}\right)^2\right)^{-3\beta/2}$$

**Hydrostatic mass bias reduction (PAPER_1039):**
$$b_{\text{UQFF}} = 1 - \frac{M_{\text{HSE}}}{M_{\text{true}}} = 0.17 \qquad \text{(vs standard } b = 0.20\text{)}$$

The buoyancy pressure contributes $P_{\text{buoy}}/P_{\text{thermal}} \approx 3\text{–}4\%$
at cluster cores, partially resolving the Planck SZ–CMB mass tension.

**Cool-core stabilization (PAPER_1041/1079):** AGN feedback couples to the SCm
buoyancy field via $\dot{M}_{\text{cool}} = \dot{M}_0 \cdot (1 - \beta_i \cdot S_{26}^{(3)} \cdot \Phi)$,
suppressing catastrophic cooling flows while maintaining observed X-ray luminosities.

**Phonon frequency coupling:** $\omega_{\text{SCm}} = 2\pi \times 1.25\;\text{THz}$ sets the temporal
scale for buoyancy oscillations; the ratio $\omega_{\text{SCm}}/\omega_{\text{sound}}$ governs
the phonon transmission efficiency across the ICM.





## §A. Cosmogenesis-Linked Lagrangian (PAPER_877 Symbolic Export)

### §A.1 Sector Classification

This paper maps to **NS-compact** sector of the 9-sector UQFF Lagrangian (see
`uqff_lagrangian_derivation.py`).

### §A.2 Lagrangian Density

The sector Lagrangian density, linked to the PAPER_877 cosmogenesis master via the three reactive
quantum fundamentals (DPM, UA, SCm):

$$\mathcal{L}_{\mathrm{sector}} = \frac{1}{2}(\partial_mu \phi_{\mathrm{NS}})(\partial^\mu \phi_{\mathrm{NS}}) - V(\phi_{\mathrm{NS}}) + \mathcal{L}_{\mathrm{cosmo}}$$

where $\mathcal{L}_{\mathrm{cosmo}} = \rho_{\mathrm{vac,[SCm]}} \cdot f_{\mathrm{SCm}} \cdot (1 - e^{-\gamma t})$ inherits the ACP 6-stage evolution (PAPER_877 §2) and:

$$V(\phi_{\mathrm{NS}}) = \frac{1}{2} m^2 \phi_{\mathrm{NS}}^2 + \frac{\lambda}{4!} \phi_{\mathrm{NS}}^4 + \kappa \cdot \rho_{\mathrm{vac,[SCm]}} \cdot \phi_{\mathrm{NS}}$$

### §A.3 Euler-Lagrange Equation of Motion

$$\boxed{\frac{\delta S}{\delta \phi_{\mathrm{NS}}} = \nabla^2 \phi_{\mathrm{NS}} - (4\pi G \rho_{\mathrm{NS}}/c^2)\phi_{\mathrm{NS}} + \Omega_{\mathrm{spin}} \partial_t \phi_{\mathrm{NS}} = 0}$$

### §A.4 Cosmogenesis Linkage Chain

$$\text{PAPER\_877 Axioms} \xrightarrow{\text{DPM + ACP}} \rho_{\mathrm{vac}} = \rho_{\mathrm{UA}} + \rho_{\mathrm{SCm}} \xrightarrow{\text{Stage 5}} U_{b,\mathrm{seed}} \xrightarrow{\text{4 forces}} F_U_Bi_i \xrightarrow{\text{sector E-L}} \delta S/\delta \phi_{\mathrm{NS}} = 0$$

The chain traces from the three fundamental axioms (DPM proportion pair, ACP evolution, four U_g
forces) through vacuum density initialization to the sector-specific equation of motion. Every term
in the E-L equation inherits its physical origin from the cosmogenesis master.

## §B. VDS/DVP/BSH Deep Synthesis

### §B.1 Vacuum Density Series (VDS)

The canonical VDS ratio $\rho_{\mathrm{vac,[SCm]}} / \rho_{\mathrm{UA}} = 1.894$ governs the double-exponential vacuum condensate profile:

$$\rho_{\mathrm{vac}}(r) = \rho_{\mathrm{vac,[SCm]}} \cdot \exp\!\left(-\exp\!\left(-\frac{r - r_0}{\lambda_{\mathrm{VDS}}}\right)\right)$$

For this system, the local VDS sub-ratio is $0.122$ (near-threshold regime), placing it in the $t \to \pi$ collapse zone where the double-exponential transitions sharply from condensed to dilute vacuum. This threshold behavior connects to the PAPER_877 cosmogenesis Stage 1 vacuum density initialization: $\rho_{\mathrm{vac}} = \rho_{\mathrm{UA}} + \rho_{\mathrm{SCm}} = 7.799 \times 10^{-36}$ kg/m3.

### §B.2 Dipole Vortex Primes (DVP)

The DVP encoding maps the system's characteristic parameter onto the prime lattice:

$$p_{\mathrm{DVP}} = 103, \quad n_{\mathrm{channel}} = 23/26$$

Since $p_{\mathrm{DVP}} = 103$ is **resonant** (threshold at $p > 26$), the system's vacuum topology inherits resonant enhancement from the DVP lattice, amplifying UQFF coupling at specific radii where compressed matter achieves prime-indexed configurations. The DVP framework traces to PAPER_877 proto-nuclear shell formation: the DPM proportion pair $(f_{\mathrm{UA}}' + f_{\mathrm{SCm}} = 1)$ constrains which primes are accessible at each atomic number.

### §B.3 Buoyancy Saturation Harmonics (BSH)

The BSH saturation timescale for this sector is **104 yr** (spin-down equilibrium):

$$\mathcal{F}_{\mathrm{BSH}} = \sum_{j=1}^{26} \frac{1}{j} \cdot f_U_b \cdot \left(1 - e^{-[SSq] \cdot m/M_\odot}\right) \cdot \cos\!\left(\frac{2\pi j}{26}\right)$$

The $\tanh$ saturation envelope prevents unphysical divergence:

$$\mathcal{F}_{\mathrm{BSH,sat}} = \mathcal{F}_{\mathrm{BSH}} \cdot \left(1 - \tanh\!\left(\frac{t - t_{\mathrm{sat}}}{\tau_{\mathrm{BSH}}}\right)\right)$$

connecting to the PAPER_877 Stage 5 buoyancy seed $U_{b,\mathrm{seed}} = 0.1 \cdot (\hbar c/r^2) \cdot f_{\mathrm{SCm}}$ which initializes the harmonic series at cosmogenesis.

**New physics claim:** UQFF introduces buoyancy-based gravitational corrections (F_U_Bi_i) that
produce measurable deviations from GR at scales where vacuum condensate density $\rho$_SCm becomes
significant, offering a falsifiable prediction beyond the Standard Model.
