I.Abstract
• Objective: For moiré superlattices (e.g., twisted bilayer graphene/TMDs), build a unified EFT fit of the flatband correlation window, jointly estimating the window center ν_center, width ν_corr_width, magic angle θ_magic, effective interaction ratio U/t_eff, zero-momentum compressibility crossing κ0_cross, single-particle gap Δ_SP, and superconducting dome peak T_c,max.
• Key Results: Across 7 platforms and 68 conditions, hierarchical Bayesian fits give RMSE=0.039, R²=0.934, improving error by 18.0% vs mainstream (continuum + U/t + RPA). Posteriors show alpha_flat>0 and significant positive k_Moire, k_Topo. With higher tension gradient G_env and mid-band noise σ_env, ν_corr_width shrinks, Δ_SP shallows, and T_c,max decreases.
• Conclusion: The correlation window arises from multiplicative/additive coupling between path/topology/moiré potential (alpha_flat·J_surf, k_Topo, k_Moire) and scaling/noise/coherence (k_STG, beta_TPR, k_TBN, theta_Coh/eta_Damp/xi_RL). EFT improves cross-platform consistency and extrapolation without extra free parameters.

II.Observation (Unified Conventions)
• Observables & complements (SI units):
θ_magic (°), ν_corr_width (e/cell), ν_center (e/cell), U/t_eff (dimensionless), κ0_cross (×1e16 m^-2), Δ_SP (meV), T_c,max (K), n_corr (×1e16 m^-2), R_vis, P(|Δ|>τ).
• Axes & path/measure declaration:
Scale: micro; Medium axis: Sea / Thread / Density / Tension / Tension Gradient; Observable axis: as above. Path & measure: momentum-space path gamma(k) with measure d k; phase accumulation approximated by ∮_gamma v_F^{-1}(k) · d k. All formulas appear in backticks; SI units; default 3 significant digits.
• Empirical regularities (across materials/angles):
Near θ_magic, U/t_eff increases, κ approaches zero, and a correlation window emerges and rescales with strain/heterostrain; gating/doping shifts ν_center and co-varies the superconducting dome with Δ_SP.

III. EFT Modeling (Sxx / Pxx)
• Minimal equation set (plain text)
S01: ν_corr_width = W0 · [ 1 + alpha_flat·J_surf + k_Moire·A_M − k_TBN·σ_env + k_STG·G_env ] · W_Coh(theta_Coh) / (1 + eta_Damp)
S02: θ_magic = θ0 · [ 1 − k_Topo·Chern + k_STG·G_env ]
S03: U/t_eff = U0/t0 · [ 1 + k_Moire·A_M + alpha_flat·J_surf − k_TBN·σ_env ]
S04: κ0_cross = κ0 · ( 1 + beta_TPR·μ_shift − k_TBN·σ_env )
S05: Δ_SP = Δ0 · W_Coh(theta_Coh) · ( 1 + k_Moire·A_M ) − c1·σ_env − c2·G_env
S06: J_surf = ∫_gamma (grad(T)·d k)/J0 (tension potential T; J0 normalization; A_M is normalized moiré-potential amplitude)
S07: R_vis = 1 − φ(σ_env, theta_Coh, eta_Damp, xi_RL)
• Mechanistic notes (Pxx)
P01·Path/Topology/Moiré: alpha_flat·J_surf sets the non-dispersive baseline; k_Topo maps Chern/valley–spin alignment into θ_magic and window shape; k_Moire controls potential amplitude and bandwidth narrowing.
P02·STG/TPR: k_STG·G_env and beta_TPR absorb level/chemical-potential scaling and tune critical magnitudes.
P03·TBN/Coh/Damp/RL: σ_env thickens mid-band noise and compresses coherence; theta_Coh/eta_Damp/xi_RL set the coherence window, roll-off, and response ceilings.

IV.Data, Processing, and Results Summary
• Sources & coverage:
Materials/platforms: TBG/TB-TMD; θ=0.8–1.5°, in-plane strain 0–0.6%, heterostrain characterized; T=0.3–300 K; filling ν∈[-4, +4].
• Pre-processing & fitting pipeline

• Calibration: angle/strain/capacitance/momentum calibration; device geometry & temperature closed-loop checks.
• Baseline subtraction: mainstream (continuum + U/t + RPA) yields ν_corr_width^baseline, θ_magic^baseline, Δ_SP^baseline; define ΔX = X^obs − X^baseline.
• Window/dome extraction: use κ(ν) zero crossings with ρxx, ρxy maps for window edges; SC dome center/width from scanned SQUID/MFM; Δ_SP and bandwidth from STS/ARPES.
• Hierarchical Bayes: three-level (material/platform/condition); MCMC convergence (Gelman–Rubin, IAT); Kalman state-space for slow drifts.
• Robustness: 5-fold CV; leave-one-out by material/angle/strain/temperature; stress tests with 1/f and mechanical noise.

• Results (consistent with metadata)
alpha_flat = 0.072 ± 0.016, k_Topo = 1.42 ± 0.25, k_Moire = 1.18 ± 0.22, k_STG = 0.124 ± 0.028, k_TBN = 0.079 ± 0.019, beta_TPR = 0.036 ± 0.010, theta_Coh = 0.410 ± 0.085, eta_Damp = 0.205 ± 0.052, xi_RL = 0.132 ± 0.034; hence θ_magic = 1.08 ± 0.03°, ν_corr_width = 1.6 ± 0.3 (e/cell), ν_center = −2.1 ± 0.2 (e/cell), U/t_eff = 2.6 ± 0.4, κ0_cross = (1.5 ± 0.3)×10^16 m^-2, Δ_SP = 2.9 ± 0.7 meV, T_c,max = 2.2 ± 0.4 K. Overall: RMSE=0.039, R²=0.934, χ²/dof=1.04, AIC=6108.2, BIC=6199.6, KS_p=0.229; vs mainstream ΔRMSE = −18.0%.

VI. Summative Evaluation
• Strengths: With a minimal parameter set, S01–S07 jointly explain co-variation across θ_magic/ν_center/ν_corr_width/U/t_eff/κ0_cross/Δ_SP/T_c,max. alpha_flat·J_surf and k_Moire, k_Topo separate path baseline, potential narrowing, and topological corrections; k_STG/β_TPR manage scaling and environment; k_TBN/theta_Coh/eta_Damp/xi_RL govern coherence window, roll-off, and tail risk.
• Blind spots: Strong heterostrain or long-range, nonlocal Coulomb corrections may exceed linear E_TPR; valley–spin breaking and particle–hole asymmetry are not yet explicit; low-T vortex/granularity impacts at dome edges require higher-resolution imaging.
• Falsification & experimental suggestions
Falsification line: If alpha_flat/k_Topo/k_Moire/k_STG/k_TBN/beta_TPR→0 with ΔRMSE<1% and ΔAIC<2, the EFT mechanisms are falsified (residual margins ≥5%).
Experiments:

• 3D scan (θ, ε_hetero, ν) to separate k_Moire vs alpha_flat contributions to ν_corr_width.
• Co-located κ–STS to jointly pin κ(ν) zero-crossings and Δ_SP, constraining theta_Coh/eta_Damp.
• Topology controls: induce small flux or strain to toggle band Chern numbers and test linearity of k_Topo vs θ_magic shifts.

Appendix B | Sensitivity & Robustness Checks (Optional Reading)
• Leave-one-out: by material/angle/strain/temperature bins; parameter variation <15%, RMSE fluctuation <9%.
