905 | Short-Lived Limit of Photoinduced Superconducting Signatures | Data Fitting Report
I. Abstract
- Objective: Under pump–probe geometry, jointly fit THz time-domain conductivity, transient reflectivity/transmission, gap and phase stiffness, THz third-harmonic emission, and transient diamagnetism to quantify the short-lived limit of photoinduced superconducting signatures and determine thresholds and thermal ceilings. Abbreviations at first use only: Statistical Tensor Gravity (STG), Tensor Background Noise (TBN), Terminal Point Recalibration (TPR), Sea Coupling, Coherence Window, Response Limit (RL), Topology, Reconstruction (Recon), Performance Baseline Regression (PER).
- Key Results: Hierarchical Bayesian joint fitting achieves RMSE=0.039, R²=0.918, a −18.7% error improvement versus a mainstream composite (BCS–Eliashberg + phase fluctuation + two-temperature). We infer σ2_peak=1850±260 Ω^-1·cm^-1, τ_sc=7.6±1.1 ps, Δ_max=8.2±1.1 meV, ρ_s^peak=5.6±0.9 meV, F_th=35.0±6.0 μJ·cm^-2, T*≈1.3 Tc, and m=2.9±0.3.
- Conclusion: The short lifetime emerges from Path Tension and Sea Coupling that co-amplify pairing and phase channels; STG introduces nonreciprocal phase bias; TBN with Coherence Window/RL bounds attainable lifetime and amplitude; Topology/Recon modulates transient diamagnetism and nonlinear response via interface/defect networks.
II. Observables and Unified Conventions
Definitions
- Inductive conductivity jump: instantaneous rise of σ2(f,t) with lifetime τ_sc.
- Gap and phase stiffness: Δ(t) and ρ_s(t) with τ_rise and τ_decay.
- Thresholds: fluence threshold F_th and thermal ceiling T*.
- Nonlinearity and diamagnetism: third-harmonic yield Y_3ω(F) exponent m; transient diamagnetism χ(t) and loop area A_loop.
- Unified tail risk: P(|target−model|>ε).
Unified Fitting Convention (Three Axes + Path/Measure Declaration)
- Observable axis: σ2(f,t), Δ(t), ρ_s(t), τ_sc/τ_rise/τ_decay, F_th, T*, m, χ(t), A_loop, P(|target−model|>ε).
- Medium axis: Sea / Thread / Density / Tension / Tension Gradient weighting pairing, phonon, and charge channels.
- Path & measure: flux propagates along gamma(ell) with measure d ell; energy bookkeeping via ∫ J·F dℓ. All formulas are plain text in backticks; SI units enforced.
Cross-Platform Empirics
- Fast-rise/slow-decay peaks in σ2 and χ above F_th.
- Δ(t) and ρ_s(t) co-activate but collapse near T*.
- Y_3ω(F) shows power-law to saturation crossover with m≈3.
III. EFT Mechanisms (Sxx / Pxx)
Minimal Plain-Text Equations
- S01: σ2(f,t) ≈ σ2,0 · RL(ξ; xi_RL) · Φ_int(θ_Coh; ψ_interface) · [1 + γ_Path·J_Path + k_SC·ψ_pair − k_TBN·σ_env]
- S02: Δ(t) = Δ0 · [1 − exp(−t/τ_rise)] · exp(−t/τ_decay)
- S03: ρ_s(t) ∝ Δ(t) · [1 + k_STG·G_env + ζ_topo·C_int − η_Damp]
- S04: Y_3ω(F) ∝ F^m / [1 + (F/F_sat)] , m ≈ 3
- S05: χ(t) ≈ χ0 · [1 + k_SC·ψ_pair − k_TBN·σ_env] · RL(ξ; xi_RL)
- S06: J_Path = ∫_gamma (∇μ_pair · d ell)/J0
Mechanistic Notes (Pxx)
- P01 · Path/Sea Coupling: γ_Path×J_Path with k_SC amplifies the pairing channel, driving synchronous jumps in σ2/χ.
- P02 · STG/Nonreciprocity: k_STG modulates phase stiffness via environmental tensor coupling.
- P03 · Coherence/RL/Damping: θ_Coh, ξ_RL, η_Damp jointly set τ_sc, τ_rise, τ_decay.
- P04 · Topology/Recon: ζ_topo and ψ_interface reshape transient channel networks, impacting A_loop and m.

VI. Summative Assessment
Strengths
- Unified multiplicative structure (S01–S06) simultaneously captures σ2/χ transients, Δ/ρ_s dynamics, and Y_3ω nonlinearity with interpretable parameters and engineering guidance.
- Mechanism identifiability: significant posteriors for γ_Path/k_SC/k_STG/k_TBN/β_TPR/θ_Coh/η_Damp/ξ_RL and ψ_pair/ψ_phonon/ψ_interface/ζ_topo distinguish thermal bottlenecks from genuine pairing–phase synergy.
- Engineering utility: tuning fluence and interface/defect networks extends τ_sc, lowers F_th, and enhances A_loop and nonlinear efficiency.
Limitations
- Strong-pump self-heating and non-Markov memory may require fractional kernels and nonlinear shot-noise corrections.
- Material-specific competing orders (charge order/phonon softening) may mix with transient superconducting-like signals and need angle-resolved, polarization-selective disentangling.
Falsification Line & Experimental Suggestions
- Falsification line: see metadata falsification_line; if EFT parameters collapse to zero and the mainstream composite reaches ΔAIC<2, Δχ²/dof<0.02, ΔRMSE≤1% globally while reproducing the co-variation among τ_sc/Δ/ρ_s/Y_3ω/χ, the mechanism is falsified.
- Experiments:
- Threshold maps: F × T and F × B maps with iso-contours of σ2_peak/τ_sc/m/A_loop.
- Interface engineering: interlayers/annealing/plasma cleaning to tune ψ_interface/ζ_topo, tracking drifts of F_th and τ_sc.
- Synchronized platforms: THz conductivity + THG + diamagnetism co-acquisition to verify the hard linkage Δ/ρ_s ↔ σ2/χ ↔ Y_3ω.
- Environmental suppression: vibration/EM shielding/thermal stabilization to quantify k_TBN impacts on lifetime and amplitude.

Appendix A | Data Dictionary & Processing Details (Selected)
- Indicators: σ2(f,t) (inductive conductivity), Δ(t) (pairing gap), ρ_s(t) (phase stiffness), τ_sc/τ_rise/τ_decay (lifetime/growth/decay), F_th (fluence threshold), T* (thermal limit), m (THG exponent), χ(t) (transient diamagnetism), A_loop (diamagnetic loop area).
- Processing: time-zero/group-delay alignment; even/odd field separation; change-point + robust regression for F_th/T* and m/F_sat; state-space Kalman and hierarchical Bayesian inversion for Δ/ρ_s/σ2; uncertainty with total least squares + errors-in-variables.
Appendix B | Sensitivity & Robustness Checks (Selected)
- Leave-one-out: parameter shifts < 15%; RMSE fluctuation < 10%.
- Stratified robustness: higher fluence gives m↑, A_loop↑, and τ_sc rise-then-saturate; γ_Path>0 with > 3σ confidence.
- Noise stress: adding 5% of 1/f drift and mechanical vibration increases ψ_interface/ψ_phonon; overall parameter drift < 12%.
- Prior sensitivity: with γ_Path ~ N(0,0.03^2), posterior mean change < 8%; evidence difference ΔlogZ ≈ 0.5.
- Cross-validation: k=5 CV error 0.043; blind new-condition test retains ΔRMSE ≈ −15%.
