The strong spacing conjecture for transformed zeta zeros

Let λj=ηj2\lambda_j=\eta_j^2 be the transformed nontrivial zeta zeros, ordered as in the source. For a parameter γ\gamma with

γ[0,1/3),\gamma\in[0,1/3),

consider consecutive transformed zeros that are not conjugates and with Im(λj)0\operatorname{Im}(\lambda_j)\ne0. Strong spacing conjecture. There exists a constant C>0C>0, depending on γ\gamma, such that

Re(λj+1λj)CRe(λj)γ\operatorname{Re}(\lambda_{j+1}-\lambda_j)\geq C\,\operatorname{Re}(\lambda_j)^\gamma

for every such jj. This generalizes the predicted strong spacing regime suggested by quadratic repulsion from random matrix theory; the source does not report a proof or disproof.
