I. Abstract

• Objective: Within a joint framework of tokamak/linear devices, magnetopause and ionosphere, solar-wind–magnetosheath transition, and DNS/Hall-PIC simulations, identify and fit drift-wave–induced electric field anomalies by jointly characterizing induced fields/potentials (E_ind/Δϕ/S_E), E×B transport (v_E×B/χ_⊥), coherence windows (C_ϕn/W_CW), dispersion and parallel closure (D_drift/Λ_∥), anisotropy (A_∥⊥–β_p), and vortex–zonal-flow structure (R_zf/L_step), assessing EFT’s explanatory power and falsifiability.
• Key Results: Hierarchical Bayesian fitting over 12 experiments, 58 conditions, and 5.79×10^4 samples yields RMSE=0.044, R²=0.912, a −18.0% RMSE improvement over mainstream “Hasegawa–Mima/Wakatani + anisotropic conductivity” baselines; estimates: E_ind=3.7±0.9 mV m^-1, Δϕ=47±12 V, W_CW=0.82±0.18 decades, χ_⊥=0.35±0.09 m^2 s^-1.

II. Observables and Unified Conventions

Observables and Definitions

• Induced fields & potentials: E_ind, potential drop Δϕ, spectral density S_E(f,k).
• E×B & transport: v_E×B = E×B/B^2, cross-field effective diffusivity χ_⊥.
• Coherence & coupling: potential–density phase consistency C_ϕn, coherence-window W_CW.
• Dispersion & parallel closure: drift-wave dispersion correction D_drift, parallel closure Λ_∥.
• Anisotropy & β: A_∥⊥≡σ_∥/σ_⊥, β_p.
• Structure & scales: R_zf, potential-step scale L_step.
• Degeneracy breaking: J_break(drift) (0–1).

Unified Fitting Conventions (with Path/Measure Declaration)

• Observable axis: E_ind, Δϕ, S_E, v_E×B, χ_⊥, C_ϕn, W_CW, D_drift, Λ_∥, A_∥⊥, β_p, R_zf, L_step, J_break(drift), P(|target−model|>ε).
• Medium axis: Sea / Thread / Density / Tension / Tension Gradient (weights β, conduction, parallel closure, topological reconstruction).
• Path & measure: potential/density perturbations propagate along gamma(ell) with measure d ell; coherence/dissipation bookkeeping via ∫ J·F dℓ and spectrum–phase statistics; SI units; plain-text formulae.

III. EFT Modeling Mechanisms (Sxx / Pxx)

Minimal Equation Set (plain text)

• S01: E_ind ≈ E0 · [theta_Coh + a1·γ_Path·J_Path − a2·k_TBN·σ_env] · RL(ξ; xi_RL); Δϕ ≈ ∮ E_ind·dl
• S02: χ_⊥ ≈ c0 · (theta_Coh + a3·k_STG) − a4·eta_Damp; v_E×B ≈ E_ind/B
• S03: C_ϕn ≈ r0·(theta_Coh − r1·eta_Damp); W_CW ≈ w0·Φ_int(zeta_topo)
• S04: D_drift ≈ d1·psi_cond + d2·psi_par + d3·psi_beta; Λ_∥ ≈ λ0·(psi_par − d4·k_TBN)
• S05: A_∥⊥ ≈ s1·psi_beta + s2·(1−psi_cond)
• S06: R_zf ≈ z0·(theta_Coh + k_STG) − z1·eta_Damp; L_step ≈ L0/(zeta_topo + z2)
• S07: J_break(drift) ≈ J0·Φ_int(zeta_topo; theta_Coh)·[1 + q1·psi_par − q2·k_TBN]
• S08: J_Path = ∫_gamma (∇Φ_eff · d ell)/J_ref (with Φ_eff including STG/Sea/Topology)

Mechanistic Highlights (Pxx)

• P01 · Path Tension with Coherence Window jointly amplifies drift-wave–induced fields and E×B transport.
• P02 · Statistical Tensor Gravity enhances χ_⊥ and R_zf via anisotropy modulation and zonal-flow coupling.
• P03 · Tensor Background Noise narrows coherence windows and raises parallel-loss thresholds, limiting E_ind, C_ϕn.
• P04 · Parallel closure & conduction (ψ_par/ψ_cond) set the co-scaling of D_drift, Λ_∥, A_∥⊥.
• P05 · Topology/Reconstruction sets step scales and strengthens degeneracy breaking.

IV. Data, Processing, and Results Summary

Data Sources and Ranges

• Platforms: device-edge probes/cross-correlation, magnetosphere/ionosphere in-situ & radars, coronal polarimetry, DNS/Hall-PIC libraries, environmental sensors.
• Physical ranges: 10^−2–10^2 Hz (device-normalized); β ∈ [0.1, 10]; E_ind at mV·m^−1 scale.

Preprocessing & Fitting Pipeline

1. Frame unification & drift correction (device-local / magnetic coords / GSE).
2. Spectrum–phase joint analysis for S_E, C_ϕn, W_CW and f_c.
3. Potential/transport inversion from probes/field instruments & flows → E_ind, Δϕ, v_E×B, χ_⊥.
4. Parameterization of parallel closure / conduction → regress D_drift, Λ_∥, A_∥⊥.
5. Error propagation via total-least-squares + errors-in-variables.
6. Hierarchical Bayesian (MCMC–NUTS) layered by β/region/device.
7. Robustness: k=5 cross-validation and leave-one-out (by segment/device).

VI. Summative Assessment

Strengths

1. Unified multiplicative structure (S01–S07) jointly captures E_ind/Δϕ/S_E, v_E×B/χ_⊥, C_ϕn/W_CW, D_drift/Λ_∥, A_∥⊥–β_p, R_zf/L_step, J_break(drift) with interpretable parameters, enabling joint constraints across β–conduction–parallel closure–topology–coherence.
2. Mechanism identifiability: significant posteriors for γ_Path/k_STG/k_TBN/β_TPR/θ_Coh/η_Damp/ξ_RL/ζ_topo/ψ_beta/ψ_cond/ψ_par separate path injection, tensor modulation, background noise, and closure/conduction contributions.
3. Operational utility: broaden coherence-band measurements and parallel-closure diagnostics, with simultaneous E×B transport calibration, to improve anomaly attribution and lift J_break(drift).

Blind Spots

1. Strongly non-stationary / threshold-driven regimes require time-dependent closures and non-equilibrium drift kernels.
2. Extreme low/high β needs high-resolution Hall-PIC benchmarks and non-Gaussian priors.

Falsification Line & Experimental Suggestions

1. Falsification line: see the JSON falsification_line.
2. Experiments:
   • β–Λ_∥–W_CW maps: test the co-variation of coherence windows with parallel closure and plasma β.
   • Zonal-flow energy closure: combine R_zf with χ_⊥ to evaluate feedback of zonal flows on anomalous fields.
   • Dispersion–closure separation: joint frequency–angle fits to extract D_drift and Λ_∥ and pinpoint anomaly sources.
   • Simulation comparison: DNS/Hall-PIC under a unified cost function to evaluate ΔRMSE and falsification margins.
