Photon-Residue Substrate (PRS): The Diffuse Energy-Field Complement to the Black-Hole Emission Mechanism

CRITICAL ADDITION Version 29 Update Major revisions in Version 29 Version 29 substantially reorganizes Section 3.8, replacing the previous discussion with a unified treatment of photon termination, EM zone–event horizon geometry, flow continuity, and PRS transport. The revised section distinguishes between the geometry that governs photon termination and the geometry that governs subsequent PRS transport, providing a more complete physical pathway linking photon breakdown to preferential polar escape. A new continuity-based transport argument has been incorporated into the proposed mechanism. Within the PRS framework, continuous photon inflow and continuous substrate formation require ongoing transport of the unbound energy residue, while the geometry of the EM zone–event horizon system provides the transition architecture through which that transport naturally occurs. The surrounding accretion environment then preferentially directs transport toward the lower-resistance polar regions. Section 3.10 has also been completely rewritten to reflect the revised organization and to summarize the mechanism as a continuous sequence from photon termination through large-scale PRS transport and cosmological accumulation. These revisions are intended to clarify the presentation of the proposed mechanism while reducing repetition. The underlying PRS hypothesis remains unchanged.
