The Hydrodynamic Resolution of High-Redshift Quasars Mass as Viscous Drag in a Superfluid Vacuum

The discovery of hyper-luminous quasars at z > 7, such as J1342+0928 (800 × 106M⊙), challenges standardaccretion models constrained by the Eddington limit. We propose a resolution within the HydrodynamicQuantum Cosmology (HQC) framework, identifying the observed mass not as accumulated baryons, but asthe hydrodynamic drag of a topological defect rotating in a superfluid vacuum. By applying the HQC-deriveddrag coefficient (Cdrag ≈ 0.18) [4], we demonstrate that the baryonic seed mass is only ≈ 18% of the observedvalue. We apply this correction to a cohort of three high-redshift quasars (J0313, J1342, J1007), showingthat their corrected masses fall within the formation limits of the “Vacuum Jamming” transition (Kn → 1)[2], eliminating the need for super-Eddington accretion.
