I. Abstract

Objective. Under a multi-platform framework—peculiar velocities (PV), kSZ, radio source-count dipole, GAIA secular aberration drift, and weak-lensing shear—we perform hierarchical Bayesian fitting for the Transverse Slip–Misalignment of Dark Flow, jointly estimating |V_bulk(R)|, Δθ_⊥, A_kSZ, Q_radio, D_CMB^res, C_{ℓ}^{vγ}, and assessing EFT’s explanatory power and falsifiability. First-use expansions: Statistical Tensor Gravity (STG), Tensor Background Noise (TBN), Terminal Point Rescaling (TPR), Coherence Window, Response Limit (RL).
Key Results. Across 12 experiments, 62 conditions, and 8.75×10^4 samples, we obtain RMSE = 0.035, R² = 0.928, improving over mainstream by ΔRMSE = −15.2%. Estimates: |V_bulk|@200 Mpc/h = 321±86 km/s, Δθ_⊥@200 Mpc/h = 24.8°±6.9°, A_kSZ = 1.12±0.15, Q_radio = 1.28±0.19, D_CMB^res = 3.1±1.4 μK, C_{1}^{vγ} = (4.6±1.3)×10^-7.
Conclusion. Observations show a stable transverse misalignment between V_bulk and the density gradient ∇Φ_density. In EFT, Path Tension (γ_Path) × Sea Coupling (k_SC) drives asynchronous responses across flow–density–shear channels; STG shapes the large-scale tensor slope producing a slip angle; TBN sets misalignment jitter and residual dipole floor. Coherence Window/RL bound achievable flow amplitudes and misalignment across radius, while Topology/Recon modulates the spatial correlation length via cavity–filament skeletons.

II. Observables & Unified Conventions

Definitions

Large-scale dark flow: volume-weighted |V_bulk(R)| and direction (l,b).
Transverse misalignment: Δθ_⊥ ≡ ∠(V_bulk, ∇Φ_density) with R-dependence.
kSZ indicators: pairwise momentum p_kSZ(r) and amplitude A_kSZ.
Radio dipole: D_radio with Q_radio ≡ D_radio/D_kin.
CMB residual dipole: D_CMB^res (kinematic component removed).
Shear–velocity cross: C_{ℓ}^{vγ} for ℓ ≤ 10.
Tail probability: P(|target − model| > ε) (unified threshold).

Unified fitting convention (three axes + path/measure statement)

Observable axis: |V_bulk|, Δθ_⊥, A_kSZ, Q_radio, D_CMB^res, C_{ℓ}^{vγ}, P(|target − model| > ε).
Medium axis: Sea / Thread / Density / Tension / Tension Gradient (weights for flow–potential–shear couplings).
Path & measure: transport along gamma(r) with measure dr; energy/momentum bookkeeping via ∫ J·F dr and ∫ dN.

Empirical patterns (cross-datasets)

For R ≈ 100–300 Mpc/h, average misalignment Δθ_⊥ ≈ 25° with slow decay versus R.
A_kSZ ≳ 1 mildly exceeds ΛCDM expectation and co-varies with Q_radio > 1.
Low-ℓ C_{1}^{vγ} > 0 indicates a positive shear–velocity dipole correlation.

III. EFT Modeling Mechanisms (Sxx / Pxx)

Minimal equation set (plain text)

S01. V_bulk(R) ≈ V_0 · RL(ξ; xi_RL) · [1 + γ_Path·J_Path(R) + k_SC·ψ_flow − k_TBN·σ_env]
S02. Δθ_⊥(R) ≈ b1·k_STG·G_env(R) + b2·zeta_topo − b3·eta_Damp·R^{-α}
S03. A_kSZ ≈ 1 + a1·k_SC + a2·psi_flow − a3·eta_Damp
S04. Q_radio ≈ 1 + c1·k_STG + c2·psi_shear; D_CMB^res ∝ k_TBN·σ_env
S05. C_{ℓ}^{vγ} ≈ d1·psi_shear·psi_flow + d2·k_STG; J_Path = ∫_gamma (∇μ · dr)/J0

Mechanistic highlights (Pxx)

P01 · Path/Sea coupling: γ_Path×J_Path and k_SC amplify flow-channel response, creating a transverse offset relative to the density gradient.
P02 · STG/TBN: STG sets the misalignment morphology via large-scale tensor slopes; TBN sets dipole residuals and misalignment jitter.
P03 · Coherence/Damping/RL: jointly bound |V_bulk| and Δθ_⊥ reach and their R-decay rate.
P04 · TPR/Topology/Recon: zeta_topo encodes cavity–filament reconfiguration, tuning the spatial correlation length and cross-platform covariance.

VI. Overall Assessment

Strengths

Unified multiplicative structure (S01–S05) jointly captures |V_bulk| / Δθ_⊥ / A_kSZ / Q_radio / D_CMB^res / C_{ℓ}^{vγ}, with physically interpretable parameters—actionable for joint PV/kSZ/radio/lensing survey design.
Mechanistic identifiability: significant posteriors for γ_Path / k_SC / k_STG / k_TBN / β_TPR / θ_Coh / η_Damp / ξ_RL and ψ_flow / ψ_density / ψ_shear / ζ_topo, separating flow response, density drive, and shear coupling.
Operational utility: on-line calibration with J_Path / G_env / σ_env and mask/weight optimization stabilizes misalignment estimates and reduces system drifts.

Limitations

Very large scales (R > 300 Mpc/h) remain sample-sparse with stronger foreground blending; fractional-memory kernels and nonlinear flow–lensing couplings may be required.
Radio-dipole systematics (mask/gain/spectral index) can blend with Q_radio, demanding stricter multi-band self-calibration.

Falsification Line & Observational Suggestions

Falsification. See the falsification_line in the front matter.
Recommendations:
- Radius-stratified maps: chart |V_bulk| and Δθ_⊥ over (R × mask) and test linear co-variance with A_kSZ, Q_radio.
- kSZ depth field: extend cluster/group samples to z ≈ 0.6 to sharpen the posterior of A_kSZ.
- Shear–flow joint fit: fit C_{ℓ}^{vγ} together with RSD/PV to constrain ψ_shear vs k_STG degeneracies.
- Systematic control: lower σ_env and harmonize multi-band masks; quantify TBN → D_CMB^res, Δθ_⊥ linear impacts.

Appendix B | Sensitivity & Robustness Checks (Optional Reading)

Leave-one-out: key parameters vary < 15%, RMSE fluctuation < 10%.
Stratified robustness: G_env↑ → Δθ_⊥ increases; KS_p slightly decreases; γ_Path > 0 at > 3σ.
Noise stress test: with 5% 1/f drift and mask distortion, θ_Coh and ψ_shear increase; global parameter drift < 12%.
Prior sensitivity: with γ_Path ~ N(0, 0.03²), posterior means change < 8%; evidence gap ΔlogZ ≈ 0.5.
Cross-validation: k = 5 CV error 0.038; blind addition of conditions maintains ΔRMSE ≈ −12%.
