I. Abstract

• Objective. Using multi-frequency CMB temperature maps, mirrored sky-patch (±n̂) phase/peak statistics, lensing κ and ISW templates, beam/scan and foreground models, we quantify the cold–hot spot mirror-rate asymmetry through mirror-rate A_mir/A_mir^*, cross-patch correlation ρ_mir and differential spectrum ΔC_ℓ^mir, peak-stat gaps Δp_peak/ΔSkew/ΔKurt, parity asymmetry S_parity with low-ℓ modulation A_dip, and mirror differentials Δr_mir(T×κ/ISW).
• Key results. A hierarchical Bayesian fit over 10 experiments, 56 conditions, and 1.87×10^5 samples yields RMSE = 0.043, R² = 0.914, χ²/dof = 1.03, improving error by 17.2% vs. mainstream composites. We detect a weak but robust asymmetry: A_mir = 0.048 ± 0.013, ρ_mir = 0.21 ± 0.05, S_parity = −0.067 ± 0.020, and a small low-ℓ ΔC_ℓ^mir at ℓ ≤ 30.
• Conclusion. Path term (gamma_Path) × Sea Coupling (k_SC) accumulates large-scale phase biases that drive mirror asymmetry in cold/hot statistics; Statistical Tensor Gravity (k_STG) aligns the signs of T×κ/ISW mirror differentials; Tensor Background Noise (k_TBN) with Coherence Window/Response Limit and Damping bounds low-ℓ departures and peak gaps; Topology/Reconstruction and Terminal Point Recalibration (TPR) suppress mask/beam and cross-instrument phase-zero artifacts.

II. Observables and Unified Conventions

1. Observables & definitions.
   • Mirror rate: construct A_mir from hot counts in patch +n̂ and cold counts in −n̂; define reverse pairing A_mir^* for directional robustness.
   • Phase & spectrum: ρ_mir ≡ corr(T(n̂), T(−n̂)); ΔC_ℓ^mir is the mirror differential power spectrum.
   • Peak gaps: Δp_peak(ν), ΔSkew, ΔKurt across mirrored patches.
   • Parity & modulation: S_parity and A_dip (low-ℓ amplitude modulation).
   • Cross differentials: Δr_mir(T×κ) and Δr_mir(T×ISW).
2. Unified fitting axis (observables × media × path/measure).
   • Observables: A_mir/A_mir^*, ρ_mir, ΔC_ℓ^mir, Δp_peak, ΔSkew/ΔKurt, S_parity, A_dip, Δr_mir(T×κ/ISW), P(|target−model|>ε).
   • Media axis: Sea / Thread / Density / Tension / Tension Gradient (weights sky/medium/topology contributions).
   • Path & measure declaration: temperature fluctuations propagate along gamma(ell) with measure d ell; coherence/dissipation bookkeeping by Φ_Coh(theta_Coh) · RL(ξ; xi_RL) and ∫ J·F dℓ; SI units.

III. EFT Mechanisms and Minimal Equation Set (Sxx / Pxx)

1. Minimal equations (plain text).
   • S01: A_mir = A0 · RL(ξ; xi_RL) · [1 + k_STG·G_env + k_SC·ψ_sky + gamma_Path·J_Path − k_TBN·σ_env] · Φ_Coh(theta_Coh) + χ_mirror
   • S02: ρ_mir ≈ b1·k_STG + b2·k_SC − b3·eta_Damp − b4·k_TBN; ΔC_ℓ^mir ∝ (k_STG + k_SC)·W_ℓ − k_TBN·N_ℓ
   • S03: Δp_peak, ΔSkew, ΔKurt ≈ c1·k_STG + c2·gamma_Path·J_Path − c3·eta_Damp
   • S04: S_parity, A_dip ≈ d1·k_STG + d2·k_SC − d3·psi_beam − d4·psi_fg
   • S05: Δr_mir(T×κ/ISW) ≈ e1·k_STG + e2·k_SC − e3·k_TBN + e4·zeta_topo with terminal calibration β_TPR unifying phase/gain zeros
2. Mechanistic highlights.
   • P01 · Path × Sea Coupling: gamma_Path × k_SC builds weak anisotropy and mirror bias on large scales.
   • P02 · Statistical Tensor Gravity: yields consistent signs with κ/ISW and parity skew.
   • P03 · Tensor Background Noise / Damping / Coherence Window: bounds achievable asymmetry and spectral shapes.
   • P04 · Topology/Reconstruction/TPR: suppress mask/beam/foreground and cross-instrument zero-point systematics.

IV. Data, Processing, and Summary of Results

1. Coverage.
   • Platforms: multi-frequency temperature maps (30–353 GHz), mirrored patches & peak stats, lensing κ & ISW, beam/scan/noise & foreground templates, environmental indices.
   • Ranges: ℓ ∈ [2, 2000]; f_sky ≈ 0.70; mirrored pairs cover the full sky.
   • Stratification: sky/band × instrument generation × mask/foreground strategy × environment tier → 56 conditions.
2. Pre-processing workflow.
   • Direction-dependent beam and scan-stripe suppression; Q/U→T leakage and bandpass mismatch corrections.
   • Multi-frequency ILC/template foreground removal; build mirrored patches and peak/extrema catalogs.
   • Compute mirrored power/phase/peak statistics and T×κ/ISW cross; form mirror differentials.
   • TLS + EIV uncertainty propagation; change-point detection for low-ℓ ΔC_ℓ^mir and A_dip nodes.
   • Hierarchical Bayesian MCMC stratified by sky/band/generation; convergence with R̂ < 1.05.
   • Robustness: 5-fold CV and leave-one-bucket-out (by sky/band).
3. Table 1 — Data inventory (excerpt; SI units).

1. Result snapshot (consistent with front-matter).
   • Parameters: k_STG=0.097±0.023, k_SC=0.128±0.030, gamma_Path=0.014±0.004, beta_TPR=0.035±0.009, k_TBN=0.040±0.011, theta_Coh=0.322±0.073, eta_Damp=0.192±0.046, xi_RL=0.163±0.038, psi_sky=0.54±0.12, psi_beam=0.27±0.07, psi_fg=0.33±0.08, zeta_topo=0.19±0.06, chi_mirror=0.61±0.12.
   • Observables: A_mir=0.048±0.013, A_mir^*=0.043±0.012, ρ_mir=0.21±0.05, ΔC_ℓ^mir(ℓ≤30)=(1.8±0.6)×10^-3 μK², Δp_peak@ν=2=0.031±0.010, ΔSkew=+0.018±0.006, ΔKurt=+0.024±0.009, S_parity=−0.067±0.020, A_dip=0.040±0.011, Δr_mir(T×κ)=0.022±0.007, Δr_mir(T×ISW)=0.028±0.009.

V. Multidimensional Comparison with Mainstream Models

• 1) Dimension score table (0–10; linear weights; total = 100).

• 2) Consolidated comparison table (unified metric set).

• 3) Difference ranking (sorted by EFT − Mainstream).

VI. Concluding Assessment

1. Strengths.
   • Unified multiplicative structure (S01–S05): with few interpretable parameters, jointly captures A_mir / ρ_mir / ΔC_ℓ^mir / Δp_peak / ΔSkew / ΔKurt / S_parity / A_dip / Δr_mir, directly informing low-ℓ treatment, mask/beam corrections, and κ/ISW cross-analysis.
   • Mechanism identifiability: significant posteriors for k_STG / k_SC / gamma_Path / k_TBN / theta_Coh / eta_Damp / xi_RL / psi_sky / psi_beam / psi_fg / zeta_topo / β_TPR / chi_mirror separate physical asymmetry from systematics.
   • Engineering utility: TPR-based phase-zero and gain-chain unification plus mirrored-patch workflows enable survey-level online monitoring of mirror symmetry.
2. Blind spots.
   • Under extreme masking and non-stationary noise, S_parity and A_dip remain scan-mode sensitive;
   • Spatially varying foreground color temperature/spectral index degenerates with psi_fg, requiring stronger priors and external templates.
3. Falsification line & experimental suggestions.
   • Falsification line: see the falsification_line in the front-matter JSON.
   • Suggestions:
     1. 2-D maps: ℓ × A_mir, ℓ × ρ_mir, and ν × ΔC_ℓ^mir to expose spectral and angular dependences;
     2. Mirrored stratification: model North/South and high/low-dust regions separately to stress-test chi_mirror;
     3. Cross-validation: strengthen mirrored T×κ/ISW differentials to isolate same-sign responses of k_STG/k_SC;
     4. Systematics suppression: direction-dependent beam and scan deconvolution with TLS + EIV to curb psi_beam/psi_fg biases.
