Abstract

Modern cosmology describes the universe as consisting primarily of three components: baryonic matter, dark matter, and dark energy. In the standard ΛCDM model these are treated as distinct components of the cosmic energy density whose microscopic physical origins remain unknown, although their large-scale cosmological effects are tightly constrained by observations. Within the ψ₀-OCM (Osborne Cosmological Model) framework, these cosmological components are interpreted as different macroscopic manifestations of a single primordial redistribution process. In this formulation the primordial field ψ₀ acts as a generative substrate from which energy, matter, and large-scale cosmic structure emerge through redistribution dynamics. The present work develops a unified redistribution-based interpretation of baryonic matter, dark matter, and dark energy by examining how different stabilization regimes of redistribution flux produce distinct observable cosmological behaviour. Baryonic matter is interpreted as tightly stabilized redistribution structures, dark matter as partially stabilized redistribution states that interact gravitationally while remaining weakly coupled to baryonic interactions, and dark energy as large-scale redistribution pressure associated with incomplete stabilization of cosmic flux. This framework provides a conceptual unification of these cosmological components while remaining compatible with established large-scale cosmological observations. Possible observational signatures and avenues for empirical testing are outlined.
