Abstract

This version corrects the reference list. No changes were made to the text, figures, derivations, numerical results, or claims of the preceding version. The bibliography expands from 80 to 83 entries. All corrections were verified against publisher or registrar records rather than reconstructed. Specific changes: Corrected author attributions (3): Ref. 50 was printed as Ribeiro, Passos & Furtado (2024, no volume or page); the work is Moreira, A. R. P., et al., Int. J. Theor. Phys. 65, 26 (2026), doi:10.1007/s10773-025-06206-z — title and journal were correct, author list, year and volume were not. Ref. 75 conflated two distinct 2020 papers from the same research group and has been split into Dagan, Y. & Bush, J. W. M., C. R. Mécanique 348, 555 (2020), doi:10.5802/crmeca.34, and Durey, M. & Bush, J. W. M., Front. Phys. 8, 300 (2020), doi:10.3389/fphy.2020.00300. Corrected publication targets (1): Ref. 7 was printed as Parattu, Majhi & Padmanabhan, Phys. Rev. D 93, 124065 (2016), which is an unrelated article by different authors. Corrected to Phys. Rev. D 87, 124011 (2013), "Structure of the gravitational action and its relation with horizon thermodynamics and emergent gravity paradigm," arXiv:1303.1535. Corrected identifiers (2): Ref. 30, Particle Data Group article number amended from 083001 to 083C01 (PTEP 2022). Ref. 80, Matsui et al., Science 391 — the issue number 6783 replaced with the page number 384; "Observation of the Einstein–de Haas effect in a Bose–Einstein condensate," 384–388, doi:10.1126/science.adx2872. Completed incomplete entries (4): Ref. 40, Shao et al., Phys. Rev. X 14, 041057 (2024), "Semi-Dirac Fermions in a Topological Metal," arXiv:2311.03735 (previously no volume or page). Ref. 41, Heefer, S. J., Finsler Geometry, Spacetime & Gravity, PhD thesis, Eindhoven University of Technology (2024), arXiv:2404.09858 (previously cited to an institutional repository rather than a publication). Ref. 25, Schrödinger (1930), first page 418 added. Ref. 69, Einstein (1915), "Die Feldgleichungen der Gravitation," first page 844 added. Preprint updated to published venue (1): Ref. 68, DESI Collaboration, now JCAP 02 (2025) 021, doi:10.1088/1475-7516/2025/02/021, arXiv:2404.03002 retained. Entries added (3): Colladay, D. & Kostelecký, V. A., Phys. Rev. D 55, 6760 (1997) and Phys. Rev. D 58, 116002 (1998), which introduce the CPT-odd vector coupling used in the text and were not previously cited; and Durey & Bush (2020), per the split described above. Outstanding: Ref. 12 (Shukla et al., Nat. Mater. 25) has not yet been verified against the publisher record. Full titles and DOIs remain absent from most entries and are deferred to a separate verified pass.
