| contents | <p>This preprint presents a physics-strict reconstruction of the GW150914 gravitational-wave chirp derived entirely from the Ultronic Medium Hypothesis (UMH), a framework that models spacetime as a mechanically real, Lorentz-invariant tensioned wave medium. Gravitational waves are treated as coherent mechanical strain propagating through this medium, rather than as perturbations of spacetime geometry.</p> <p>An intrinsic inspiral–merger–ringdown waveform is generated from first principles using a dedicated UMH chirp generator, without post-Newtonian expansions beyond Newtonian order, numerical-relativity calibration, effective-one-body modeling, or phenomenological waveform fitting. The generated chirp is compared to LIGO Hanford and Livingston data using a strictly independent analysis pipeline that permits only a single global time and polarity alignment across detectors.</p> <p>The UMH waveform reproduces the observed GW150914 morphology, including instantaneous frequency evolution, amplitude growth, merger timing, spectrogram structure, and ringdown frequency, without per-detector tuning, frequency remapping, or phase warping. Agreement is evaluated using whitened time-domain overlays, Hilbert-derived instantaneous frequency tracks, amplitude spectral density comparisons, and spectrogram morphology.</p> <p>All source–observer scaling, including amplitude normalization, phase accumulation, and time dilation, is fixed by a single tension-based calibration previously established using Pantheon+ Type Ia supernova data and applied without further adjustment. The results demonstrate that a first-principles, medium-based model can reproduce the full gravitational-wave chirp structure observed by LIGO using fewer modeling assumptions than standard template-based approaches.</p> <p>This work serves as an observational test of the Ultronic Medium Hypothesis in the strong-field gravitational-wave regime and complements prior cosmological applications of the framework.</p> |
