Saturation Gravity, an Interpretation of Gravitational Energy Distribution within General Relativity

Description

Saturation Gravity is a speculative, field-based interpretative framework in which gravitational phenomena are described as arising from a vacuum energy deficit associated with matter. The framework introduces a universal saturation scale that limits the accumulation of gravitational field effects, providing a physical explanation for why gravitational fields remain finite in extreme regimes.

General Relativity is fully recovered in the weak-field limit and remains the correct macroscopic description of gravity. Saturation Gravity does not modify Einstein’s field equations, introduce new particles, or violate relativistic principles. Instead, it offers an interpretative mechanism for gravitational time dilation, horizon formation, and dark-matter-like phenomenology without invoking additional matter components.

This work is presented as a preliminary theoretical framework for discussion and critical analysis.
