  • <p><strong>In this report, the value of the ratio of matter energy to total energy, the dark energy density, and the very high value of the quantum mechanics vacuum energy density are calculated using the zero-energy hypothesis. The very high value of the quantum mechanics vacuum energy density is also predicted by the current contemporary methods of the cosmological constant problem. This report attempts to explain the true meaning of the very high value of the quantum mechanics vacuum energy density. The methods in this report thus provide a possible solution to the cosmological constant problem. The zero-energy hypothesis states that the total positive energy of the observable universe is equal to the negative gravitational energy of the observable universe. One assumption about the existence of harmonic oscillators that is made in current physics is that the energy associated with them is distributed uniformly throughout the vacuum. In this report, it is assumed that the energy of harmonic oscillators is actually not distributed uniformly throughout the vacuum at intermediate scales. The reason for this is because the generation of harmonic oscillators within the vacuum is associated with the generation of virtual particles, and these waves weaken with distance away from the virtual particles much like the intensity of an electromagnetic wave emitted from an excited electron within the electron cloud of an atom weakens with distance away from the electron. </strong><strong>These results incorporate the zero-energy hypothesis and the fact that these results don’t differ much from the actual values gives hope that the zero-energy hypothesis is true and that these methods are correct and provides a viable solution to solving the cosmological constant problem. </strong></p>
