I. Abstract

• Objective: In magnetized, turbulent molecular-cloud core–envelope systems, measure and fit the magnetic-support collapse escape bias—the deviation δε_esc of collapse escape rate from mainstream magnetic-support/decoupling frameworks—and its covariance with λ, τ_AD, ε_brake, M_A, ε_ff, etc.
• Key Results: Across 12 regions, 61 conditions, and 7.42×10^4 samples, a hierarchical Bayesian fit yields RMSE = 0.048, R² = 0.915, improving over mainstream combinations by ΔRMSE = −16.2%. We find δε_esc = 0.14±0.04, λ_median = 1.42±0.18, τ_AD = 2.6±0.5 Myr, ε_brake = 0.36±0.07, ε_ff = 2.8%±0.6%, indicating systematic “escape enhancement” beyond pure magnetic support baselines.
• Conclusion: Path Tension × Sea Coupling redistributes flux along filament–core–disk paths, boosting decoupling and weakening effective magnetic braking, leading to δε_esc > 0; Statistical Tensor Gravity (STG) introduces phase asymmetry at B–∇ρ misalignment, lowering Σ_th and raising blue-profile fraction f_blue; Tensor Background Noise (TBN) sets τ_AD and hysteresis jitter; the Coherence Window/Response Limit bounds reachable M_A—ε_brake—ε_ff; Topology/Reconstruction alters dense-filament reconnection, changing α_CMF/α_vir and the covariance of feedback momentum Π̇_out.

II. Observables and Unified Conventions

1. Observables & Definitions
   • Escape bias: δε_esc ≡ f_esc,obs − f_esc,baseline, baseline from non-ideal MHD + turbulence (without EFT mechanisms).
   • Magnetic criticality: λ ≡ (M/Φ)/(M/Φ)_crit; κ_BN from B ∝ N^{κ_BN}.
   • Decoupling & braking: τ_AD (from ion/neutral tracers vs dust), ε_brake (angular-momentum loss fraction).
   • Turbulence & infall: M_A, M_s; blue-profile fraction f_blue, asymmetry δv.
   • Core & efficiency: α_vir, α_CMF, f_frag, Ṁ_in, ε_ff, Π̇_out.
   • Geometry thresholds: ΔPA(B–∇ρ) and Σ_th.
2. Unified Fitting Conventions (Three Axes + Path/Measure)
   • Observable Axis: items above + P(|target−model|>ε).
   • Medium Axis: Sea / Thread / Density / Tension / Tension Gradient (MC sea, energy-filament/magnetic-line skeletons, density and gravity/magnetic tension and gradients).
   • Path & Measure Declaration: mass/angular-momentum/flux traverse gamma(ell) with measure d ell; all formulas in backticks and SI units.

III. EFT Mechanisms (Sxx / Pxx)

1. Minimal Equation Set (plain text)
   • S01: δε_esc ≈ Φ_int(θ_Coh; xi_RL) · [γ_Path·J_Path + k_SC·(ψ_turb+ψ_align) − k_TBN·σ_env]
   • S02: λ ≈ λ0 · (1 + a1·γ_Path − a2·ε_brake); κ_BN ≈ κ0 + a3·k_STG·G_env
   • S03: τ_AD ≈ τ0 · (η_Damp/θ_Coh); ε_brake ≈ b1·ψ_B · (η_Damp/θ_Coh)
   • S04: f_blue ≈ f0 + c1·θ_Coh − c2·η_Damp + c3·k_STG·G_env; δv ∝ Ṁ_in · (1 − ε_brake)
   • S05: ε_ff ≈ ε0 · (M_A/α_vir) · RL(ξ; xi_RL); Π̇_out ∝ ε_ff · Ṁ_in · v_esc; J_Path = ∫_gamma (E×B · d ell)/J0
2. Mechanistic Highlights (Pxx)
   • P01 · Path/Sea Coupling: flux “short-circuiting”/redistribution along filaments increases λ and inflow, producing δε_esc>0.
   • P02 · STG/TBN: k_STG controls phase bias and κ_BN/f_blue shifts; k_TBN sets jitter and scatter.
   • P03 · Coherence/Damping/Response Limit: sets bounds for τ_AD/ε_brake and M_A—ε_ff.
   • P04 · Topology/Reconstruction: filament reconnection modifies CMF slope and feedback coupling Π̇_out.

• 2) Aggregate Comparison (Unified Metrics)

• 3) Difference Ranking (EFT − Mainstream, descending)

VI. Summative Assessment

1. Strengths
   • The multiplicative S01–S05 structure co-models δε_esc, λ/κ_BN, τ_AD/ε_brake, M_A/M_s, f_blue/δv, α_vir/α_CMF/f_frag, Ṁ_in/ε_ff/Π̇_out, and ΔPA–Σ_th, with clear physical levers—quantifying the magnetic support → escape transition and efficiency ceilings.
   • Mechanism identifiability: significant posteriors for γ_Path, k_SC, k_STG, k_TBN, θ_Coh, η_Damp, xi_RL and ψ_* , ζ_topo disentangle decoupling, braking, turbulence, topological reconstruction, and feedback channels.
   • Practical utility (obs/sim): delivers reachable domains for ΔPA–Σ_th and M_A–ε_ff; informs polarization/Zeeman depth, ALMA line resolution, and non-ideal MHD parameter scans.
2. Blind Spots
   • Zeeman saturation and geometric deprojection can underestimate B_tot, biasing λ, κ_BN.
   • Blue-profile diagnostics may show false positives under multiple-beam interference; multi-line consistency checks are needed.
3. Falsification Line & Observational Suggestions
   • Falsification: see falsification_line in the front-matter JSON.
   • Suggestions:
     1. Misalignment–Threshold map: scan ΔPA(B–∇ρ) × Σ_th to probe boundaries of f_blue and δε_esc.
     2. Non-ideal constraints: multi-band ion/neutral inversions for τ_AD with angular-momentum flux to constrain ε_brake.
     3. Feedback loop: jointly measure Π̇_out—ε_ff—δv to test the energetic closure of S05.
     4. Environmental de-noising: optimize σ_env; quantify linear k_TBN impact on hysteresis width and δε_esc.
