## Task

An open research task extracted from the final Chapter 2 manuscript, not a new canonical derivation.

## Current state

Finite near-core density deficit, far-field flux and four-way mass matching are already defined, and (2.7c) supplies the gravitational-coupling scale combination. The next step is to compute these responses in one stable structure, rather than add an unrelated mass parameter.

<Equation name="grv-source" />

<Equation name="dyn-mass-deficit" />

<Equation name="dyn-mass-coupling" />

<Equation name="grv-coupling-scale" />

## Required work

Compute longitudinal source strength, inertia and external response from one stable matter structure, matching the dimensionless coupling in G₀ = ξ_G c²/(ρ₀ℓ₀²). Keep line density Φ, volume density ρ_s and near-core q_ρ distinct.

## Deliverable and boundary

A convergent near-core integral, exterior flux solution, energy/inertial/active/passive mass matching and coupling-coefficient calculation.

Do not integrate the external 1/r line-stretch field as a finite whole-space volume-density deficit; do not assign an electron or FCC source merely to complete a diagram.
