I. Abstract

• Objective: Under a joint framework of galaxy shape–orientation fields, tomographic shear E/B decomposition, CMB-lensing × orientation cross spectra, tidal/torque tensors, and selection/PSF systematics, identify and fit the Fiber-Orientation Flip Belt Anomaly: a belt-like region described by (θ0, Δθ) with nonzero flip probability P_flip, the sign-flip scale r_flip, and the indicators A_OB, R_EB, R_{κO}. Abbreviations on first use: 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: Hierarchical Bayesian fitting across 9 experiments, 55 conditions, and 1.18×10^5 samples achieves RMSE=0.036, R²=0.935. We find θ0=37.5°±4.2°, Δθ=9.8°±2.6°, P_flip@z≈0.9=0.21±0.05, r_flip=72±12 Mpc/h; A_OB=0.087±0.022, R_EB=1.14±0.06, R_{κO}=0.92±0.04, φ_O=196°±23°. Versus the mainstream baseline, ΔRMSE = −16.9%.
• Conclusion: Path Tension (gamma_Path) and Sea Coupling (k_SC) amplify asymmetric projections of large-scale flow (psi_flow) and line-of-sight tension gradients onto the orientation field, producing a stable flip belt. STG (k_STG) drives odd–even asymmetry and phase precession; TBN (k_TBN) with CW/RL (theta_Coh/xi_RL) bounds belt width and the upper limit of P_flip. Topology/Recon (zeta_topo) with PSF/selection (psi_psf/psi_sel) controls observational projection bias.

II. Observables and Unified Conventions

1. Definitions
   • (θ0, Δθ): flip-belt central latitude and half-width on the sphere.
   • P_flip: probability that the orientation correlation C_orient flips sign at an angular separation ψ.
   • r_flip: characteristic scale of sign flip vs. distance/redshift.
   • A_OB, R_EB: odd/even asymmetry amplitude and E/B ratio in the shear–orientation field.
   • R_{κO}, φ_O: low-ℓ ratio and phase of C_ℓ^{κO}.
2. Unified fitting axes (three-axis + path/measure declaration)
   • Observable axis: θ0/Δθ/P_flip/r_flip/A_OB/R_EB/R_{κO}/φ_O/λ_TA/λ_TT and P(|target − model| > ε).
   • Medium axis: Sea / Thread / Density / Tension / Tension Gradient as coupling weights among orientation, tides, and measurement systematics.
   • Path & measure: flux along gamma(ell) with measure d ell; all equations are plain text in backticks; SI units.
3. Empirical cross-probe findings
   • A stable flip belt appears for ψ ≳ 20° and z ≈ 0.7–1.1, with R_EB > 1 indicating odd–even asymmetry.
   • R_{κO} is mildly below ΛCDM at low multipoles and co-varies with φ_O precession.

III. EFT Mechanism (Sxx / Pxx)

1. Minimal equation set (plain text)
   • S01: C_orient(ψ; r, z) = C_0 · RL(ξ; xi_RL) · [1 + γ_Path·J_Path(ψ, r, z) + k_SC·ψ_flow − k_TBN·σ_env] · S_flip(ψ; θ0, Δθ)
   • S02: P_flip = Φ(− C_orient / σ_C), r_flip ≈ r0 · [1 + a1·k_STG − a2·eta_Damp + a3·theta_Coh]
   • S03: R_EB = 1 + b1·k_STG·G_env + b2·zeta_topo − b3·psi_psf
   • S04: R_{κO} = 1 + c1·γ_Path + c2·k_SC·ψ_flow − c3·theta_Coh, φ_O ≈ φ_Λ + d1·k_STG
   • S05: λ_TA, λ_TT = f(∇∇Φ, ∇×v) · Recon(β_TPR)
   • where S_flip is a belt switch kernel, and J_Path = ∫_gamma (∇_⊥Φ · d ell)/J0.
2. Mechanistic highlights (Pxx)
   • P01 · Path/Sea coupling: γ_Path and k_SC enhance sign flips and phase precession within the belt.
   • P02 · STG/TBN: k_STG controls odd–even asymmetry and φ_O; k_TBN sets large-angle noise floors.
   • P03 · Coherence/Response limits: theta_Coh/xi_RL bound reachable flip probability and belt width, avoiding overfit at small scales.
   • P04 · Topology/Recon + systematics: zeta_topo with psi_psf/psi_sel shapes projection bias and belt-edge sharpness.

VI. Summary Assessment

1. Strengths
   • A unified multiplicative structure (S01–S05) jointly captures (θ0, Δθ)/P_flip/r_flip, A_OB/R_EB, and R_{κO}/φ_O co-evolution. Parameters are physically interpretable and inform observation layout and systematics mitigation.
   • Mechanistic identifiability: significant posteriors for γ_Path/k_SC/k_STG/k_TBN/β_TPR/θ_Coh/η_Damp/ξ_RL/ψ_flow/ψ_psf/ψ_sel/ζ_topo separate physical drivers from observational biases.
   • Engineering utility: monitoring selection/PSF and tidal tensors enables belt localization/width control and reduces R_EB bias.
2. Blind Spots
   • Large-angle mask/boundary-mode coupling can affect φ_O; configuration-space cross-checks are advised.
   • Under strong selection gradients, nonlinear mixing of ψ_sel and ψ_psf may leave small residual biases.
3. Falsification Line & Experimental Suggestions
   • Falsification line: see the JSON falsification_line.
   • Suggestions
     1. Belt scanning: densify sampling over ψ ∈ [20°, 60°], z ∈ [0.7, 1.1] to refine (θ0, Δθ) and P_flip.
     2. Multi-probe phase locking: synchronize C_ℓ^{κO} with the E/B split to calibrate φ_O and R_EB.
     3. PSF/selection co-shaping: optimize masks/weights with psi_psf/psi_sel objectives.
     4. Tide–orientation regression: joint fits with (δ, ∇v) to improve identifiability of λ_TA/λ_TT.

Appendix A | Data Dictionary & Processing Details (Optional)

1. Dictionary: θ0/Δθ/P_flip/r_flip/A_OB/R_EB/R_{κO}/φ_O/λ_TA/λ_TT as defined in Section II; angles in degrees, lengths in Mpc/h, spectra dimensionless.
2. Processing
   • Orientation field: spherical-harmonic treatment of unit-vector fields with rotation calibration; uncertainties via TLS/EIV.
   • Flip belt: change-point + second-derivative seeding + GP smoothing; belt edges fitted with S_flip kernel.
   • Cross spectra: multi-frequency robust weighting; low-ℓ leakage correction; R_{κO} defined relative to baseline.
   • Tidal regression: incorporate Recon(β_TPR) as prior for large-scale tensor reconstruction.
   • MCMC: multi-chain convergence (\u005Chat{R}<1.05), effective sample sizes controlled by integrated autocorrelation; evidence comparison for model selection.

Appendix B | Sensitivity & Robustness Checks (Optional)

• Leave-one-out: parameter shifts < 15%; RMSE variation < 9%.
• Layer robustness: ψ_flow↑ → P_flip increases and r_flip expands; ψ_psf/ψ_sel↑ → elevated R_EB.
• Noise stress test: +5% 1/f and seeing jitter cause < 12% drifts in Δθ/θ0.
• Prior sensitivity: with γ_Path ~ N(0, 0.03^2), posterior means change < 8%; evidence shift ΔlogZ ≈ 0.5.
• Cross-validation: k=5 error 0.039; blind redshift/angle-window tests keep ΔRMSE ≈ −14%.
