DK-RD2 THERMODYNAMIC–RELATIVISTIC GRAVITY IN DIALOGUE WITH THE THEORY OF OBJECTIVITY

Open access0 citations

Abstract

This article develops a critical–propositional analysis of Gabriel Martín del Campo Flores’s DK-RD2: Duo-Kinetic Relativistic Dynamics 2, Thermodynamic– Relativistic Gravity and the Origin of Cosmic Expansion in dialogue with the Theory of Objectivity (TO). DK-RD2 proposes that the effective gravitational response of the Universe depends on thermodynamic and relativistic conditions through a temperature- and velocity-dependent gravitational coupling, thereby seeking to reproduce late-time cosmic expansion without a cosmological constant, dark energy, dark matter, or phe- nomenological fitting parameters. The analysis examines this proposal under the modal discipline of the seven axioms of TO, with special attention to the distinction between modal necessity, physical bridge laws, and empirical corroboration. Particular emphasis is placed on VA6, concerning compositional emergence, and VA7, under which the tran- scendent element is understood in TO as knowledge or information produced in atomic relations and physically equivalent to atomic radiation. The study further articulates DK-RD2 with TO’s phenomenic elements, Inducing Effects, cosmogenic theorem, and cosmological Eras, especially the Era of Tertiary Plasma Logical Currents and the Cen- trifugal Era. The article identifies significant structural convergences: both frameworks privilege relational and emergent explanations over the introduction of additional onto- logical substances; both allow macroscopic gravitational and cosmological phenomena to be interpreted as consequences of more elementary relational processes; and DK-RD2 provides a potentially valuable operational pathway connecting temperature, radiation, relativistic motion, gravity, and cosmic expansion. However, important tensions remain. DK-RD2 does not provide an ontology of absolute origin, does not derive its gravi- tational law from the TO axioms, does not identify information with radiation, and presently lacks a complete covariant derivation of energy–momentum conservation for a variable effective gravitational coupling, an independently derived cosmological velocity function, and a first-principles Boltzmann treatment of perturbations. A simplified analysis also shows that the proposed coupling does not automatically imply accelerated expansion unless the evolution of the velocity sector or additional dynamics produces the required condition q < 0. The empirical studies reported by Flores—supernovae, H(z), BAO-related comparisons, CMB geometric morphing, gravitational-lensing geometry, and linear growth—are therefore interpreted not as direct confirmation of the TO axioms but as possible indirect corroboration of operational bridges compatible with TO. The paper concludes that DK-RD2 constitutes a particularly fertile contemporary dialogue with TO at the phenomenological and bridge-law levels, while remaining ontologically subordinate to the modal-cosmogenic scope claimed by TO.
