Japanese to English translations [Non-PRO]
Science - Physics / cosmology
Japanese term or phrase: 存在領域
Two candidates: 1)fields of existence 2)domain of existence

Weblio.com offers 2) for its English translation. I'm writing a certain article on Universe. The nuance for "存在領域" is some being on/in a certain frame of reference with z axis, namely 3D sphere.
Please kindly advise. Much appreciated. Thank you in advance!

Explanation:
Domain では存在がその領域に何らかの影響を及ぼすような感じがします。ニュートラルに存在領域を表すなら、私なら area of existence にします。

location


Explanation:
I think it would sound more natural to omit 存在 and just go with location / realm / domain. I think 存在 has a "softer" meaning than existence, much like 存在感 translates well as presence. Adding "of existence" sounds extraneous to my ears.
