Curvature-Tunable Absorbance in Graphene: A Quarkbase-Cosmology Prediction presents a falsifiable prediction derived from Quarkbase Cosmology: the optical absorbance of monolayer graphene (A ≈ πα ≈ 2.3%) should vary linearly with curvature or biaxial strain. In this framework, light propagation is interpreted as the motion of longitudinal pressure waves in the etheric Ψ-field. Curvature modifies the local density of pressure channels guiding electromagnetic propagation, producing a small but measurable modulation of absorbance on the order of 10⁻³–10⁻² per % strain. The work outlines the theoretical derivation, proposes a simple experimental setup based on micro-ellipsometry and AFM curvature mapping, and identifies the result as a clean falsification test of Quarkbase Cosmology. A positive detection would challenge the assumed universality of graphene’s πα absorbance and provide direct evidence for etheric pressure dynamics as the substrate of electromagnetism.
