A Geometric Interpretation of Vampire Stars in Wilhoite Scaling Theory A Conceptual Note

This short conceptual note clarifies how interacting binary systems (“vampire stars”) are interpreted within Wilhoite Scaling Theory (WST), also known as Geometric Scaling Fields (GSF). Mass transfer is described as a field-regulated relaxation process that minimizes geometric stress in a shared scaling field, naturally explaining the stability, saturation, and longevity of such systems. This note is interpretive in scope and does not replace detailed stellar-evolution or accretion modeling. This note is formulated within the Wilhoite Geometric Scaling Framework as defined in Wilhoite (2025), Zenodo, DOI: 10.5281/zenodo.17973193.
