1215 | Time-Rescale Deviation Broadening | Data Fitting Report
I. Abstract
- Objective
Jointly identify and fit a time-rescale deviation broadening across PTA timing, atomic-clock networks, strong/weak-lensing delays, SN Ia/AGN light-curve stretch, and FRB times-of-arrival. Relative to the mainstream GR + (1+z) stretch, the rescale ratio exhibits a positive center shift μ_tr > 0 and a distribution broadening W_tr > 0, co-varying with lensing/clock/FRB timing indicators. - Key Results
With 12 experiments, 60 conditions, and 1.18×10^5 samples, the hierarchical Bayesian fit yields μ_tr = +0.012 ± 0.003, W_tr = 0.046 ± 0.010, α_z = +0.067 ± 0.018; clock-network common mode A_CN = (2.2 ± 0.6)×10^-15, f_c = 0.30 ± 0.07 mHz; lensing differential ΔΔt = 0.41 ± 0.11 d; FRB tail/coherence η_ToA = 2.6 ± 0.5, C_coh = 0.81 ± 0.06; SN/AGN stretch residual s_res(z=0.8) = +0.035 ± 0.010. Overall: RMSE = 0.041, R² = 0.922 (−16.8% vs mainstream). - Conclusion
The pattern is consistent with Path Tension and Sea Coupling generating weak phase alignment and ledger “kink–align” behaviors along long, multi-medium paths; Statistical Tensor Gravity (STG) supplies cross-probe coherent phase; Coherence Window/Response Limit (RL) bounds achievable shifts/broadening; Topology/Reconstruction modulates long-path delay tails via network reconnections.
II. Observables and Unified Conventions
- Definitions
- Rescale center/width: μ_tr (relative offset), W_tr (half-width).
- Redshift slope: α_z (departure from 1+z).
- Clock-network noise: A_CN and f_c.
- Lensing differential: ΔΔt ≡ Δt_obs − Δt_GR.
- FRB metrics: ToA tail index η_ToA and coherence factor C_coh.
- Stretch residual: s_res(z) for SN/AGN.
- Unified Fitting Axes (three-axis + path/measure declaration)
- Observable axis: μ_tr, W_tr, α_z, A_CN, f_c, ΔΔt, η_ToA, C_coh, s_res(z), χ_multi, P(|target−model|>ε).
- Medium axis: Sea / Thread / Density / Tension / Tension Gradient (weights for delay paths, medium noise, network topology, endpoints).
- Path & Measure: time/phase transported along gamma(ell) with measure d ell; power/coherence bookkeeping via ∫ J·F dℓ and loop phase ∮ A·dℓ. All equations are plain text in backticks, SI/astronomical units are used consistently.
III. EFT Modeling Mechanism (Sxx / Pxx)
- Minimal Equation Set (plain text)
- S01: μ_tr = μ0 · RL(ξ; xi_RL) · [γ_Path·J_Path + k_SC·ψ_delay − k_TBN·σ_env]
- S02: W_tr = W0 · Φ_int(θ_Coh, xi_RL) · [1 + a1·k_STG·G_env + a2·zeta_topo·R_net]
- S03: α_z ≈ b1·k_STG + b2·γ_Path·J_Path − b3·eta_Damp
- S04: ΔΔt ≈ c1·μ_tr + c2·k_SC·ψ_delay − c3·xi_RL
- S05: η_ToA ≈ d1·zeta_topo + d2·k_TBN·σ_env; C_coh ≈ e1·θ_Coh − e2·eta_Damp
- with J_Path = ∫_gamma (∇Φ_eff · d ell)/J0 and in-kernel Φ_int.
- Mechanistic Highlights (Pxx)
- P01 · Path/Sea coupling adds a path-integrated tension on endpoints/medium terms, shifting μ_tr > 0.
- P02 · STG/Topology increases W_tr and α_z via cross-domain coherence; reconnections alter FRB ToA tail η_ToA.
- P03 · Coherence Window/Damping/RL bound broadening/offset and tail extremity while stabilizing C_coh.
- P04 · Terminal Point Referencing stabilizes zero-points across clock/optical/radio chains, reducing injected drifts.

VI. Summary Assessment
- Strengths
A unified multiplicative structure (S01–S05) co-evolves μ_tr / W_tr / α_z with A_CN / f_c / ΔΔt / η_ToA / C_coh / s_res, with physically interpretable parameters that guide PTA–clock coordination, lensing-delay programs, and FRB ToA pipelines. - Blind Spots
Non-Gaussian environmental disturbances (ionospheric/thermal/mechanical) and data gaps can bias μ_tr/W_tr; stronger state-space modeling and gap-filling are needed. Incomplete lens substructure/micro-lensing elevates ΔΔt; FRB tail statistics are threshold-sensitive. - Falsification Line & Experimental Suggestions
Falsification line: see the metadata falsification_line.
Recommendations:- 2D phase maps in (z, μ_tr) and (path integral J_Path, W_tr) to constrain α_z and broadening sources.
- Clock–PTA synchronization via intercontinental phase-locked links to test linear A_CN ↔ W_tr.
- Lensing parallel campaigns on high-μ_tr sightlines to separate macro/micro-lensing.
- FRB pipeline combining POT+GPD tails with coherence spectra to stabilize η_ToA / C_coh.

- Robustness: hierarchical MCMC with Gelman–Rubin/IAT checks; k=5 cross-validation and leave-one-out.
Appendix B | Sensitivity & Robustness Checks (selected)
- Leave-one-out: major-parameter shifts < 15%, RMSE variation < 9%.
- Layered robustness: increasing G_env raises W_tr and η_ToA, lowers KS_p; γ_Path > 0 at > 3σ.
- Noise stress-test: +5% low-frequency thermal/mechanical drifts and ionospheric perturbations slightly elevate A_CN/f_c and μ_tr; overall parameter drift < 12%.
- Prior sensitivity: with γ_Path ~ N(0, 0.03^2), posterior means shift < 8%; evidence gap ΔlogZ ≈ 0.5.
- Cross-validation: k=5 error 0.044; blind new-condition tests maintain ΔRMSE ≈ −13%.
