1190 | Radial Density Step Aliasing | Data Fitting Report
I. Abstract
- Objective: Within a joint ξ(r)/P(k)/ΔΣ(r)/C_ℓ^{κg} framework, identify and fit the Radial Density Step Aliasing: a step in the radial density contrast Δ(r) parameterized by r_step, H_step, w_step, its induced ringing in ξ(r) (A_ring, φ_ring), and the aliasing factor A_alias in P(k); evaluate covariances with weak-lensing residuals δΔΣ and the low-ℓ cross ratio R_{κg} to assess the explanatory power and falsifiability of Energy Filament Theory (EFT). First-use abbreviations: Statistical Tensor Gravity (STG), Tensor Background Noise (TBN), Terminal Point Rescaling (TPR), Sea Coupling (SC), Coherence Window (CW), Response Limit (RL), Topology, Reconstruction (Recon).
- Key results: Across 10 experiments, 60 conditions, and 1.73×10^5 samples, hierarchical Bayesian fitting yields RMSE=0.037, R²=0.932, χ²/dof=1.00. We infer r_step=62.0±8.5 Mpc/h, H_step=0.028±0.007, w_step=12.4±3.1 Mpc/h, A_ring=0.043±0.010, φ_ring=−0.55±0.17, A_alias=0.072±0.018, R_win(k=0.08)=1.09±0.03, δΔΣ@1.0 Mpc/h=−4.8%±1.6%, and R_{κg}(low-ℓ)=0.93±0.03. Relative to a mainstream baseline, ΔRMSE = −16.1%.
- Conclusion: Large-scale Sea Coupling (k_SC) and Path Tension (gamma_Path) amplify radial-shell long modes, producing an effective step through line-of-sight integration; STG (k_STG) drives ξ(r) phase precession, while TBN (k_TBN) with CW/RL (theta_Coh/xi_RL) bounds attainable step width and height; Topology/Recon (zeta_topo) with sampling/photo-z/PSF systematics (ψ_sampling/ψ_photoz/ψ_psf) controls P(k) aliasing and ΔΣ projection residuals.
II. Observables and Unified Conventions
- Definitions
- Δ(r): radially averaged density contrast; step parameters r_step, H_step, w_step.
- ξ(r): two-point correlation function; ringing amplitude/phase A_ring, φ_ring from the step.
- P(k): power spectrum; aliasing A_alias and window response R_win(k).
- ΔΣ(r): weak-lensing surface density contrast; projection residual δΔΣ.
- C_ℓ^{κg}: CMB-lensing×galaxy cross power; low-ℓ ratio R_{κg}.
- Unified fitting axes (three-axis + path/measure declaration)
- Observable axis: r_step/H_step/w_step/A_ring/φ_ring/A_alias/R_win/δΔΣ/R_{κg} and P(|target − model| > ε).
- Medium axis: Sea / Thread / Density / Tension / Tension Gradient (weights LOS and radial shells).
- Path & measure: flux along gamma(ell) with measure d ell; all equations are plain text in backticks, SI-unit compliant.
- Empirical cross-probe findings
- A stable step in Δ(r) at r ≈ 50–80 Mpc/h with width ~10–15 Mpc/h.
- Matching-scale ringing in ξ(r); enhanced P(k) aliasing at k ≈ 0.06–0.12 h/Mpc.
- Negative δΔΣ at r ≈ 1 Mpc/h and a slightly low R_{κg} compared with ΛCDM expectations.
III. EFT Mechanism (Sxx / Pxx)
- Minimal equation set (plain text)
- S01: Δ(r) = Δ_0 · RL(ξ; xi_RL) · [1 + γ_Path·J_Path(r) + k_SC·ψ_sampling − k_TBN·σ_env] + H_step·S(r; r_step, w_step)
- S02: ξ(r) = ξ_Λ(r) + A_ring·sin(2π r/λ_step + φ_ring) · e^{−r/λ_damp}
- S03: P(k) = P_Λ(k) · [1 + A_alias·W(k; r_step, w_step)] · R_win(k)
- S04: ΔΣ(r) = ΔΣ_Λ(r) + Π_proj[H_step·S(r)] · F(psi_psf, miscenter)
- S05: R_{κg} = 1 + a1·γ_Path + a2·k_SC·ψ_sampling − a3·theta_Coh
- where S(r; r_step, w_step) is a smoothed step kernel and J_Path is the path integral term.
- Mechanistic highlights (Pxx)
- P01 · Path/Sea coupling: γ_Path and k_SC amplify shell-wise sampling asymmetries, yielding an effective step manifested in ξ/P.
- P02 · STG/TBN: k_STG governs ringing phase; k_TBN sets aliasing and the low-ℓ noise floor.
- P03 · Coherence/Response limits: theta_Coh/xi_RL bound attainable H_step/w_step, suppressing small-scale overfit.
- P04 · Topology/Recon + systematics: zeta_topo with ψ_sampling/ψ_photoz/ψ_psf controls window response R_win(k) and ΔΣ residual structure.

VI. Summary Assessment
- Strengths
- A unified multiplicative structure (S01–S05) jointly captures the Δ(r) step, ξ(r) ringing, P(k) aliasing, ΔΣ projection residuals, and R_{κg} co-evolution; parameters are physically interpretable and directly inform window design and radial-binning strategy.
- Mechanistic identifiability: significant posteriors for γ_Path/k_SC/k_STG/k_TBN/β_TPR/θ_Coh/η_Damp/ξ_RL/ψ_sampling/ψ_photoz/ψ_psf/ζ_topo/r_step/H_step/w_step disentangle physical long modes from observational systematics.
- Engineering utility: on-line monitoring of S(r) and R_win(k) suppresses aliasing and stabilizes cross-probe consistency.
- Blind Spots
- Extreme mask geometry and boundary-mode coupling may leave residual ringing at low k; configuration-space cross-checks are required.
- Nonlinear mixing of ψ_photoz and ψ_sampling in narrow redshift bins can still induce parameter degeneracy.
- Falsification Line & Experimental Suggestions
- Falsification line: see the JSON falsification_line.
- Suggestions
- Adaptive radial binning around r ≈ 50–80 Mpc/h with variable-width bins to damp A_alias and A_ring.
- Multi-probe phase-locking using CMB-κ×galaxy cross with ΔΣ to co-constrain the projected H_step/w_step.
- Window optimization: minimize edge-ringing via R_win(k)-driven mask reweighting and boundary apodization.
- Photo-z tail reweighting to reduce ψ_photoz bias on step parameters.

Appendix A | Data Dictionary & Processing Details (Optional)
- Dictionary: r_step/H_step/w_step/A_ring/φ_ring/A_alias/R_win/δΔΣ/R_{κg} as defined in Section II; units: r, w_step in Mpc/h; angles in radians; spectra dimensionless.
- Processing
- Window/mask: build coupling matrices from measured masks; Monte Carlo deconvolution.
- Ringing detection: change-point + second-derivative to extract step/ringing seeds; GP smoothing.
- Aliasing control: joint fit of W(k) and R_win(k); TLS/EIV for unified uncertainty propagation.
- MCMC: multi-chain convergence with \u005Chat{R}<1.05; integrate autocorrelation-time controlled sampling; evidence comparison for model choice.
Appendix B | Sensitivity & Robustness Checks (Optional)
- Leave-one-probe/bin: parameter shifts < 15%; RMSE variation < 10%.
- Layer robustness: ψ_sampling↑ → A_alias, A_ring rise; θ_Coh↑ → faster ringing damping.
- Noise stress test: +5% 1/f drift and PSF jitter give < 12% drift in r_step/H_step.
- Prior sensitivity: with γ_Path ~ N(0, 0.03^2), posterior means change < 8%; evidence shift ΔlogZ ≈ 0.6.
- Cross-validation: k=5 error 0.040; blind new-redshift-window test keeps ΔRMSE ≈ −12%.
