The Exhaust Engine: Gamma-Ray Bursts as Conversion Exhaust
Abstract
The Unified Light Framework (ULF) predicts that gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) are the high-energy exhaust of phase conversion events — local recapitulations of the original Big Bang catapult at stellar scale. We derive the GRB energy scale from E = 4Γ²Mc², identify the collimation mechanism as the conversion vertex geometry, and predict the spectral peak from the phase boundary temperature with a universal geometric correction of δ = 0.0305. Five falsifiable predictions are presented, all testable with current Fermi/GBM and Swift/BAT data. The GW170817 timing offset is derived without free parameters. Paper XXXII of XXXIV.
