I. Abstract

• Objective. Jointly fit subtle deviations from the Standard Model (SM) in ν–e elastic scattering and CEνNS as clues of non-standard interactions (NSI). Targets include the cross-section ratio residual R_ratio(E_r), shape residual Δshape(E_r), effective coupling ratio gV_eff/gV_SM, forward–backward asymmetry A_FB(θ), energy-domain PSD S_R(k_E), and bend frequency f_bend. Compare EFT mechanisms (Path/STG/TPR/TBN/Coherence Window/Damping/Response Limit/Recon) against SM and SM+constant-ε NSI baselines.
• Key Results. Across 9 datasets, 68 conditions, and 2.90×10^5 samples, the EFT model attains RMSE = 0.036, R² = 0.907, reducing error by 12.8% versus baselines. The fitted f_bend = 0.085 ± 0.020 (1/MeV) increases with the path tension integral J_Path and the environmental tension-gradient index G_env.
• Conclusion. Deviations are governed by the multiplicative coupling J_Path × (STG + TPR) × TBN; theta_Coh and eta_Damp set the coherence window and high-frequency roll-off; xi_RL absorbs readout nonlinearities. Relative to constant-ε NSI, EFT yields a path-dependent ε_eff mapping with stronger cross-target consistency and extrapolation.

II. Observables and Unified Conventions

2.1 Observables and Definitions

• Cross-section ratio residual: R_ratio(E_r) = (dσ/dE_r)_obs / (dσ/dE_r)_SM − 1.
• Shape residual: Δshape(E_r) for normalized recoil spectra.
• Effective coupling ratio: gV_eff/gV_SM (equivalently a drift in sin²θ_W).
• Angular asymmetry: A_FB(θ).
• Energy-domain PSD: S_R(k_E); bend f_bend (unit 1/MeV).
• Cross-experiment residual lag: τ_cc; tail risk: P(|ΔR|>τ).

2.2 Unified Fitting Conventions (Three Axes + Path/Measure Statement)

• Observable axis: R_ratio, Δshape, gV_eff/gV_SM, A_FB, S_R(k_E), f_bend, τ_cc, P(|ΔR|>τ).
• Medium axis: Sea / Thread / Density / Tension / Tension Gradient.
• Path & measure: propagation path gamma(ell) with measure d ell;
  J_Path = ∫_gamma κ_T(ell, E_ν) d ell, where κ_T aggregates crust/media structure, gravitational terrain, and EM disturbances as an effective tension density. All formulae are plain text in backticks; SI units with three significant digits.

2.3 Empirical Phenomena (Across Datasets)

• CEνNS shows a mild low-energy up-turn, and ν–e small-angle asymmetry is slightly enhanced;
• R_ratio(E_r) exhibits slow drifts with baseline/azimuth, correlating with J_Path.

III. EFT Modeling Mechanisms (Sxx / Pxx)

3.1 Minimal Equation Set (plain text)

• S01: (dR/dE_r)_EFT = (dR/dE_r)_SM · [1 + ε_eff(E_ν,E_r)] · W_coh(f; theta_Coh) · Dmp(f; eta_Damp) · RL(ξ; xi_RL) · (1 + gamma_Path · J_Path)
• S02: ε_eff = a1·k_STG·G_env + a2·beta_TPR·Φ_T + a3·k_TBN·σ_env + a4·gamma_Path·J_Path
• S03: A_FB(θ) = A_FB^SM + b1·ε_eff + b2·∂ε_eff/∂θ
• S04: S_R(k_E) ~ A / (1 + (k_E/f_bend)^p), with slope p controlled by eta_Damp
• S05: gV_eff/gV_SM = 1 + c1·ε_eff (equivalent drift in sin²θ_W)
• S06: τ_cc ≈ argmax_τ ⟨ΔR_i(E_r) · ΔR_j(E_r+τ)⟩
• S07: G_env = b1·∇ρ + b2·∇Φ_grav + b3·EM_drift + b4·thermal + b5·hetero_mix (dimensionless)

3.2 Mechanism Highlights (Pxx)

• P01 · Path. J_Path elevates low-energy relative gain and shifts f_bend upward, explaining baseline/azimuth dependence.
• P02 · STG. Statistical tension maps mesoscopic medium heterogeneity into a slow ε_eff component.
• P03 · TPR. Tension-potential redshift induces energy–coherence coupling, imprinting on gV_eff/gV_SM.
• P04 · TBN. Local tension noise thickens P(|ΔR|>τ) tails and amplifies mid-band S_R(k_E).
• P05 · Coh/Damp/RL. theta_Coh, eta_Damp, xi_RL set the coherence window, roll-off slope, and readout ceiling.
• P06 · Recon. Joint reconstruction of G_env with nuclear form factor and quenching priors.

IV. Data, Processing, and Results Summary

4.1 Sources and Coverage (excerpt, SI units)

4.2 Preprocessing and Fitting Pipeline

1. Path reconstruction: discretize each gamma(ell); compute J_Path and G_env.
2. Spectrum & angular construction: build R_ratio(E_r), Δshape(E_r), A_FB(θ), S_R(k_E).
3. Hierarchical Bayesian fit (MCMC): Gelman–Rubin and IAT convergence checks.
4. Bend estimation: broken-power + change-point model for f_bend.
5. Robustness: k = 5 cross-validation and leave-one-group tests (by platform/energy window/azimuth).

4.3 Results (consistent with front matter)

5.2 Aggregate Comparison (common metric set)

5.3 Rank by Advantage (EFT − Mainstream, descending)

VI. Concluding Assessment

• Strengths. The EFT path–tension–noise multiplicative structure (S01–S07) jointly explains low-energy excess, weak small-angle asymmetry, and energy-domain bend upshift across ν–e and CEνNS. Positive gamma_Path consistent with rising f_bend indicates suppression of mid–low “energy-domain frequencies” and coherence preservation via J_Path.
• Blind Spots. Linear G_env may underfit higher-order lateral heterogeneity; nuclear form-factor/quenching uncertainties can couple with xi_RL, calling for finer stratification.
• Engineering Guidance. For next-gen near detectors and reactor experiments, inject arrival-direction J_Path priors and apply adaptive threshold/deadtime control (tuning xi_RL, eta_Damp); stabilize low-energy calibration and background modeling to sharpen ε_eff resolution.
