Abstract : Biological systems routinely execute rapid, large-scale anatomical decision-making and long-range pattern coordination that exceed the known bandwidth of ionic and biochemical computation. The human bioelectric field, though central to morphogenesis and physiological regulation, lacks the informational capacity required for high-dimensional morphogenetic memory, nonlocal developmental control, and continuity of form across metamorphosis. This interdisciplinary paper proposes that the bandwidth gap is resolved by a structured dark plasma sheath bound to the ordinary bioelectric field through a weak Yukawa-type coupling mediated by a light boson such as the proposed X17 particle (i.e., the “Dark Sheath Hypothesis” (DSH)). The bioelectric field acts as a field-lens that organizes dark electrons and dark ions into filamentary currents, plasmoid nodes, vortices and nested concentric shells, generating a dual-sector computational architecture. This sheath provides the necessary depth for rapid anatomical inference and developmental coordination. The model yields experimentally testable predictions, including filamentary pulsing, vortical magnetic signatures, and coherence patterns during specific human mental states.

Keywords : Bioelectric Field, Dark Matter, Dark Plasma Sheath, Field-Lens Mechanism, Morphogenesis, Regeneration, SelfInteracting Dark Plasma, X17 Boson, Yukawa Coupling.
