Zoomed-in cross-section of the electron’s raceway in the dc1 superfluid substrate. The electron is a vortex of dc1 (purple spiral with a dense core) riding a co-rotating channel (amber). Counter-rotating layers above and below (teal) shear against the raceway. All three bands are populated with smaller entrained eddies of dc1 that spin with their channel — vortices inside vortices, all the way down. At the boundaries, counter-spinning eddies form like whitewater rapids in an alternating Kelvin-Helmholtz pattern, marking the shear between layers. This is where Simeonov’s “Fluid 2” lives, responding to density gradients in “Fluid 1” — the hydrodynamic origin of the quantum potential. The gentle arcs at the edges indicate this is a section of the electron’s quantized path around the proton.
