It is shown that the observed flattening of the orbital speeds of the arms of spiral galaxies is generated by an appropriate perturbative fluctuation of energy density of the three-dimensional quantum vacuum, which corresponds to a degree of viscosity, on the ultra-low frequencies. In this approach, a unifying re-reading of ordinary matter, dark matter, and dark energy as phenomena deriving from the energy density fluctuations of the same three-dimensional quantum vacuum is obtained.}, number={3}, journal={Journal of Theoretical and Applied Physics}, publisher={OICC Press}, author={Fiscaletti, Davide}, year={2023}, month={Nov.}, keywords={Ordinary matter, Quantum vacuum energy density, Standard model, Timeless three, Dark energy, Dark matter, Dimensional quantum vacuum} }
