Dark Matter as the Gravitized Vacuum:
A Brief Note and Experimental Proposal

Abstract
The gravitized vacuum is operationally defined as the vacuum of space suffi-
ciently close to any gravitating massive body, or collection of bodies,
such
that its gravitational energy field strength and density are observed, or ex-
pected, to be greater than that of deep intergalactic space. It
is hypothesized
that the contributions to gravitational lensing and excess galactic/peri-ga
lactic
rotational inertia currently attributed to dark matter could be predictable ef-
fects of increased energy density, with corresponding mass effects, of a gravi-
tized vacuum acting in the manner of a near-
absolute zero superfluid. This
hypothesis should be testable by an earth-
based laboratory with the apparatus
and procedure described herein.

1. Introduction and Background
It is well-known that vacuum regions within and around galaxies refract distant
starlight and exhibit gravitational effects currently attributed to invisible matter.
The first property, “gravitational lensing,” is largely attributed to this “dark mat-
ter” (in conjunction with the visible matter). It is also well-known that, despite
the recent apparent completion of the standard particle model with the discov-
ery of the Higgs boson, current proposals for the nature of a dark matter particle
do not appear to fit within the standard model. After numerous failed creative
attempts to capture and characterize particulate dark matter, non-particulate
proposals for the observational phenomena mentioned above are now being
taken more seriously [1] [2] [3] [4] [5]. Eric Verlinde’s “emergent gravity”
