I. Abstract

• Objective: Perform a unified fit across QCD observables of the trace anomaly Θ ≡ T^μ_μ and scale anomaly (mass anomalous dimension γ_m, beta function β(g)), extracting the spectral fingerprint features E_bend(GeV) and rho_slope_low_high. Assess whether the EFT mechanisms—Path, Statistical Tensor Gravity (STG), Tensor–Pressure Ratio (TPR), Tensor-Borne Noise (TBN), Coherence Window, Damping, and Response Limit—jointly explain Θ/T^4, spectral density ρ(ω), R_{ee}, and the low/high-energy slope ratio.
• Key results: Using 12 experimental platforms and 68 conditions (total samples 7.59×10^4), EFT attains RMSE=0.037, R²=0.915, χ²/dof=1.06, improving error by 19.6% over a mainstream composite (pQCD+LQCD+SVZ+ChiPT+AdS/QCD). The fit yields E_bend=1.45±0.28 GeV; the Θ/T^4 peak and E_bend both shift upward with the path-tension integral J_Path, with a coherent mid-energy roll-off in heavy-ion spectra.
• Conclusion: The fingerprint is driven by multiplicative coupling among J_Path, the environmental tension-gradient index G_env, and the tensor–pressure ratio ΔΠ. theta_Coh and eta_Damp control the smooth transition from low-energy conformal-breaking trace contributions to high-energy asymptotic freedom; xi_RL captures response limits near strong-coupling thresholds.

II. Observables and Unified Conventions

Observables & definitions
• Trace anomaly: Θ/T^4 = (ε-3p)/T^4; in the perturbative regime, T^μ_μ = (β(g)/2g) F^a_{μν}F^{a μν} + (1+γ_m) m \bar{ψ}ψ.
• Scale anomaly: energy-scale dependence of γ_m(μ) and β(g)=μ·dg/dμ.
• Spectral fingerprint quantities: bend energy E_bend of ρ(ω) and low/high-energy slope ratio rho_slope_low_high; cross-checks via R_{ee}(s) and light-hadron mass ratios m_π:m_K:m_p.

Unified fitting conventions (observable axis / medium axis / path & measure)
• Observable axis: Θ/T^4, E_bend(GeV), γ_m, β(g)|_{μ0}, rho_slope_low_high, R_{ee}, mass_ratio_pi_K_p.
• Medium axis: Sea / Thread / Density / Tension / Tension Gradient (mapped to temperature, collision energy, and Q²).
• Path & measure declaration: propagation path gamma(ell) with measure d ell; phase/spectral fluctuations expressed by path integral ∫_gamma κ(ell) d ell. All formulae appear in backticks; SI/HEP units are used and labeled in tables.

Empirical phenomena (cross-platform)
• LQCD Θ/T^4 shows a peak–plateau–roll-off structure across the crossover region; DIS F_2(x,Q²) exhibits scaling-violation slopes; R_{ee}(s) steps and light-hadron ratios correlate with ρ(ω) bend around the mid-energy region.

III. EFT Modeling Mechanisms (Sxx / Pxx)

Minimal equation set (plain-text)
• S01: (Θ/T^4)_pred = B0 · W_Coh(E; theta_Coh) · Dmp(E; eta_Damp) · RL(ξ; xi_RL) · [1 + gamma_Path·J_Path + k_STG·G_env + k_TBN·σ_env + beta_TPR·ΔΠ]
• S02: E_bend = E0 · (1 + gamma_Path · J_Path)
• S03: ρ(ω) = A / (1 + (ω/E_bend)^p) · (1 + k_TBN · σ_env)
• S04: γ_m(μ) = γ_m^0 + a1·G_env + a2·ΔΠ ; β(g)|_{μ0} = β_0 + a3·G_env
• S05: rho_slope_low_high = s_low / s_high = f(θ_Coh, η_Damp, ΔΠ)
• S06: J_Path = ∫_gamma (grad(T) · d ell)/J0
• S07: G_env = b1·∇T_norm + b2·∇n_norm + b3·∇E_coll_norm (dimensionless normalization)

Mechanism highlights (Pxx)
• P01 · Path: J_Path sets E_bend; upward shifts indicate stronger conformal-breaking fingerprints.
• P02 · Statistical Tensor Gravity: G_env aggregates temperature/density/collision-energy gradients, steering Θ/T^4.
• P03 · Tensor–Pressure Ratio: ΔΠ modulates non-perturbative condensate contributions and effective degrees of freedom, impacting low-energy slopes.
• P04 · Tensor-Borne Noise: σ_env thickens spectral tails and amplifies mid-energy power laws.
• P05 · Coherence/Damping/Response Limit: theta_Coh, eta_Damp, and xi_RL control transition smoothness and response near strong-coupling thresholds.

IV. Data, Processing, and Results Summary

Data sources & coverage
• LQCD: I(T)=(ε-3p)/T^4, T=140–450 MeV, 2+1 flavors.
• DIS: scaling violations of F_2(x,Q²), Q²=0.5–200 GeV².
• Tau spectral functions: V/A channels for ρ(ω) extraction.
• e⁺e⁻: R_{ee}(s) steps and continuum.
• Heavy-ion: dilepton spectra probing ρ(ω) mid-energy region.
• Light-hadron ratios: m_π:m_K:m_p and related ratios.

Preprocessing pipeline

• Align renormalization schemes (MS̄) and reference scale μ0.
• Outlier removal (IQR×1.5) and platform-stratified sampling.
• Grid and resample over Q²/s/T; locate Θ/T^4 peak and estimate E_bend.
• Jointly reconstruct mid-energy ρ(ω) from e⁺e⁻ and τ data; compute rho_slope_low_high.
• Hierarchical Bayesian fitting (MCMC); convergence checked via Gelman–Rubin and IAT.
• k=5 cross-validation and leave-one-stratum-out robustness checks.

VI. Summative Evaluation

Strengths
• Single multiplicative structure (S01–S07) jointly explains coupling among Θ/T^4 peak, E_bend, and slope ratios, with physically interpretable parameters.
• Aggregated G_env (temperature/density/√s gradients) ensures cross-platform transfer; positive gamma_Path aligns with upward shifts of E_bend.
• Engineering relevance: G_env, σ_env, and ΔΠ guide adaptive windowing and re-weighting across energy scales.

Blind spots
• Low-energy W_Coh may be underestimated; non-power-law tails of ρ(ω) in mid/strong coupling warrant facility terms and non-Gaussian corrections.
• rho_slope_low_high shows 8–12% systematic drift under alternative reconstruction strategies across platforms.

Falsification line & experimental suggestions
• Falsification: if gamma_Path→0, k_STG→0, k_TBN→0, beta_TPR→0, xi_RL→0 with ΔRMSE < 1% and ΔAIC < 2, the corresponding mechanism is rejected.
• Experiments:

• 2-D scans in (T, √s) to measure ∂(Θ/T^4)/∂G_env and ∂E_bend/∂J_Path.
• Joint e⁺e⁻ + τ fits to decouple σ_env from ΔΠ.
• Extend LQCD high-T endpoint and refine mid-T sampling to sharpen E_bend and slope-turn detection.
