#!/usr/bin/env python3 """ substrate_gravity.py — reproduce the gravity-sector results =========================================================== Companion reproduction script for the standalone science intro, ``arxiv/bridge-paper.qmd``, §sec-gravity ("Gravity as a leak, and the acoustic metric"). Where ``substrate_atomic.py`` reproduces the particle-physics backbone and ``substrate_galactic.py`` the DESI/Hubble cosmology, this script reproduces the three gravitational results: 1. Painlevé–Gullstrand / Schwarzschild metric (§sec-pg) The substrate ebb v_ebb(r) = √(2GM/r), fed into the Unruh acoustic metric, is *exactly* the Painlevé–Gullstrand form of Schwarzschild. We verify the metric identity, the horizon r_s = 2GM/c², the "pressure gravitates" factor ρ_eff = 4ρ, and the four classical tests against solar-system data. 2. The small cosmological constant (§sec-lambda) Volovik self-tuning: the dark-energy scale is the substrate scale, ρ_Λ^(1/4) ≈ m₁c² ≈ 2 meV, and the notorious tiny Λ is one residual disequilibrium read against two rulers — 1.6 against ρ_DM, 3.4e-62 against the Planck density — the two differing by exactly (m₁/M_Pl)², the same hierarchy that makes G weak. 3. MOND from the superfluid (§sec-mond) With ρ_DM fixed by the bridge equation, the MOND acceleration scale is a₀ = c√(Gρ_DM) = 1.16e-10 m/s², within ~3% of the measured g†; the "cosmic coincidence" a₀/cH₀ = √(3Ω_DM/8π) = 0.178 follows identically; and the outer-rim Landau velocity is predicted from constants by the clean-units law v_L = c(4π/ν)^(1/3) ≈ 740 km/s (~1.3% from the ω₀ξ target, matching the fast solar wind), superseding the raw-SI cubic (4πν c²G)^(1/3) that undershoots to ~398 km/s for want of the 2D→3D projection.
