Default Random thought: Dark Matter & Dark Energy vs. Strong & WeakNuclear Forces

A random thought that just entered my mind a few days back was what if
Dark Energy and Dark Matter were really aspects respectively of the Weak
and Strong Nuclear Forces acting out on the cosmic scale? They kind of
act the same. The Dark Matter sort of acts like the Strong Force: holds
the outer edges of a galaxy from falling off, and holds the galaxies
together in clusters, but seems to mysteriously disappear the closer you
get to the centre of a galaxy. And then the Dark Energy sort of acts
like the Weak Force: it is limp-wristed against the Strong at close
distances, but go out far enough and it just dominates the Strong.

We've also heard those theories about what if our Universe were just an
atom within a larger Super-Universe (SuperVerse)? Then if it's merely an
atom (or maybe more like a molecule) of the Superverse, then why not
have the Superverse's version of the nuclear forces acting on it? That
way the galaxies are just the quarks. They form up into clusters, which
are just the atomic nucleii. The clusters come together to form a single
complex molecule, with the intergalactic gas being the electron cloud.

I'm sure it sounds pretty kooky, but has anyone else thought of
correlating the nuclear forces out at the cosmic level?


It may be possible that molecular domains of illuminated gas can
"cohere" forming a region of space that is more ~conductive~
to gravitational force than less dense regions.

... interactions vanish for a particle of mass m is at kT ~ mc2,
in accordance with the results of Donoghue et al. The red-shifted
radiative image of local matter, through the magnifying glass of
distance, partakes in global coherent modes, in the emergence
of the local vacuum and waves the dynamic tapestry of space.
In so doing, it binds to matter beyond the range of its generally
assumed near field, inducing the 1/r gravitational potential.
Since it is the kinetic motions of matter that induce gravity,
the fall into a gravitational potential well reduces the fundamental
frequencies of free matter, slows clocks down and decreases
the mass-energy asymptotically.

The inductive coupling takes place in the near field í± c/r12
between coherently coupled individual dipoles, through their
red-shifted local antipodal image. This allows the exchanged
photons to be virtual and the coherent modes to genuinely
belong to the coupled oscillators while ensuring that the range
of gravity spans the Universe.

The probability of some valid analogy with subatomic
interactions is the business of folks that only
use clocks and rulers on their lucky days and
roll dice when they don't feel lucky.
