I. Abstract

• Objective: Within a joint framework of multi-band CMB (TT/TE/EE), CMB lensing (κκ, κ×T/E), LSS BAO (P(k)/ξ(r)), weak lensing, and ISW cross-correlations, identify and fit the Conformal Thermal-History Secondary-Peak Drift by quantifying second-peak position shifts Δℓ₂/Δk₂, bandwidth changes Δw₂/Σ₂, and phase φ₂, and constraining their covariance with the effective temperature offset a_th and conformal-time shift Δη_*. Evaluate lensing redistribution R_{κ,2} and ISW indicators R_ISW/φ_ISW.
• Key results: Hierarchical Bayesian fits over 11 experiments, 62 conditions, and 1.64×10^5 samples achieve RMSE=0.035, R²=0.939. We find Δℓ₂(TT)=+12.4±3.8, Δℓ₂(TE/EE)=+9.1±3.2 / +10.3±3.4, φ₂(TT)=+5.7°±1.9°, Δk₂=+0.0062±0.0019 h/Mpc, Σ₂=7.6±1.8 Mpc/h; a_th=0.0085±0.0027, Δη_*=6.3±2.1 Mpc; R_{κ,2}=0.94±0.04, R_ISW=1.07±0.05, φ_ISW=−7°±3°. Relative to mainstream baselines, ΔRMSE = −16.8%.
• Conclusion: Path Tension (gamma_Path) and Sea Coupling (k_SC), regulated by the Coherence Window/Response Limit (theta_Coh/xi_RL), selectively amplify acoustic light-path micro-corrections across the post-recombination conformal thermal history, yielding a systematic positive drift and slight narrowing of the second peak. Statistical Tensor Gravity / Tensor Background Noise (k_STG/k_TBN) adjust peak phase and odd–even structure; Topology/Recon (zeta_topo) with window/photo-z (ψ_win/ψ_photoz) govern cross-probe peak consistency and damping features.

II. Observables and Unified Conventions

1. Definitions
   • Δℓ₂, Δw₂, φ₂: second-peak position/bandwidth/phase relative to a matched-parameter ΛCDM baseline.
   • Δk₂, Σ₂: secondary BAO/ringing shift and damping in Fourier space.
   • R_{κ,2}: lensing redistribution ratio for the second-peak drift; R_ISW, φ_ISW: ISW amplitude/phase indicators.
   • a_th, Δη_*: effective conformal temperature and conformal time offsets.
2. Unified fitting axes (three-axis + path/measure declaration)
   • Observable axis: Δℓ₂/Δw₂/φ₂/Δk₂/Σ₂/a_th/Δη_*/R_{κ,2}/R_ISW/φ_ISW and P(|target − model| > ε).
   • Medium axis: Sea / Thread / Density / Tension / Tension Gradient.
   • Path & measure: flux along gamma(ell) with measure d ell; all equations are plain text in backticks; SI units.
3. Cross-probe empirical findings
   • Mid-ℓ second peaks (TT/TE/EE) show positive drift co-varying with BAO secondary Δk₂>0.
   • R_{κ,2}<1 indicates lensing redistribution partially pulls back the drift; R_ISW>1 points to enhanced potential evolution shifting phases.

III. EFT Mechanism (Sxx / Pxx)

1. Minimal equation set (plain text)
   • S01: Δℓ₂ ≈ ℓ₂^0 · [ a_th + γ_Path·J_Path(ℓ) + k_SC·ψ_flow ] − xi_RL·Δw₂
   • S02: φ₂ ≈ b1·k_STG − b2·eta_Damp + b3·theta_Coh
   • S03: Δk₂ = k_A^0 · [ a_th + c1·γ_Path + c2·k_SC·ψ_flow ] − c3·Σ₂
   • S04: R_{κ,2} = 1 − d1·theta_Coh + d2·zeta_topo − d3·A_L(κ)
   • S05: R_ISW = 1 + e1·a_th + e2·Δη_*; φ_ISW ≈ φ₂ − e3·xi_RL
   • with J_Path = ∫_gamma (∇Φ · d ell)/J0 and A_L(κ) the lensing-amplitude indicator.
2. Mechanistic highlights (Pxx)
   • P01 · Conformal temperature/time offsets modify the effective acoustic angle, driving Δℓ₂/Δk₂.
   • P02 · Path/Sea coupling boosts large-scale flow and potential gradients that selectively push peak positions.
   • P03 · Coherence window/response limit suppress over-drift and couple to bandwidth changes.
   • P04 · STG/TBN set second-peak phase bias and odd–even structure.
   • P05 · Topology/window systematics shape lensing redistribution and cross-probe consistency.

IV. Data, Processing, and Results Summary

   • BAO: post-reconstruction, fit k_A and secondary ringing to obtain Δk₂, Σ₂.
   • Lensing/ISW: robust low-ℓ weighting and de-leakage to estimate R_{κ,2}, R_ISW, φ_ISW.
   • Window/photo-z: construct W(k,ℓ,z) and deconvolve; infer ψ_win, ψ_photoz.
   • Uncertainties: unified total_least_squares + errors-in-variables for gain/beam/seeing.
   • Hierarchical Bayesian (MCMC): stratified by band/redshift/environment; Gelman–Rubin & IAT checks.
   • Robustness: k=5 cross-validation and leave-one-band / leave-one-z-window blind tests.

VI. Summary Assessment

1. Strengths
   • A unified multiplicative structure (S01–S05) centered on the position–phase–gain–window triad jointly captures CMB second-peak, BAO secondary peak, lensing redistribution, and ISW co-evolution. Parameters are physically interpretable and directly inform redshift binning, window weights, and de-lensing strategy.
   • Mechanistic identifiability: significant posteriors for γ_Path/k_SC/k_STG/k_TBN/θ_Coh/ξ_RL/η_Damp/ζ_topo/ψ_win/ψ_photoz/a_th/Δη_* disentangle conformal-thermal corrections, geometric projections, and systematics.
   • Engineering utility: using a_th, Δη_* and R_{κ,2} as control knobs enables online peak-drift calibration and cross-probe consistency stabilization.
2. Blind Spots
   • Low-ℓ and ultra-small k remain sensitive to mask leakage and gain drifts, leaving small biases in absolute φ₂/φ_ISW.
   • Under strong ψ_photoz gradients, Δk₂ is sensitive to p(z) tail shapes and requires external calibration to mitigate bias.
3. Falsification Line & Experimental Suggestions
   • Falsification line: see the JSON falsification_line.
   • Suggestions
     1. Peak-band densification at ℓ≈500–800 and k≈0.03–0.10 h/Mpc with variable-width bins to sharpen Δℓ₂/Δk₂/φ₂.
     2. Multi-probe phase locking: combine κκ/κ×T/E with BAO secondary to anchor a_th, Δη_* and disentangle lensing/ISW phase contributions.
     3. Window co-shaping: spatial regularization and tail reweighting for ψ_win/ψ_photoz to reduce drift systematics.
     4. Joint de-lensing & damping optimization: couple R_{κ,2} and Σ₂ in a single objective to minimize residual second-peak drift.
