I. Abstract

• Objective: Using HMI/PHI vector magnetograms, AIA/EVE/IRIS thermal–radiative diagnostics, Hinode/SOT, PFSS/NLFFF topology, and SolO/PSP context, quantify the closed-field recharging anomaly: rates of energy-gap refill and flux recovery, Poynting injection vs. shear/convergence, reconnection/wave channels and footpoint heating covariance; evaluate the explanatory power and falsifiability of the Energy Filament Theory (EFT).
• Key Results: A hierarchical Bayesian joint fit over 12 experiments, 61 conditions, and 7.9×10^4 samples yields RMSE=0.052, R²=0.907, χ²/dof=1.06, KS_p=0.287, with −15.3% error versus mainstream (shear injection + emergence/submergence cycling + closed reconnection + WTD). We measure τ_rech = 28.4 ± 6.0 min, f_rec = 0.72 ± 0.09, ⟨S_z⟩ = 1.26 ± 0.28 kW·m⁻², R_ex = (3.0 ± 0.7)×10⁻⁴ s⁻¹, dΦ/dt = 4.3 ± 0.9×10¹² Wb·hr⁻¹, and ΔQ = 0.4 ± 0.2×10¹⁹ W.
• Conclusion: The anomaly arises from Path Tension × Sea Coupling driving the topology–reconnection–wave triad (ψ_topo/ψ_recon/ψ_wave) asynchronously. Statistical Tensor Gravity (STG) supplies large-scale potential that strengthens closed-flux recovery; Tensor Background Noise (TBN) sets the dissipation threshold via eta_Damp; Coherence Window/Response Limit bound reachable injection–dissipation balance; zeta_rech encodes endpoint/skeleton remodeling efficiency, governing the recharging time constant and thermal-recovery amplitude.

II. Observables and Unified Conventions

1. Observables & Definitions
   • Recharging rate: time constant τ_rech, recovery fraction f_rec.
   • Injection & geometry: Poynting flux S_z, shear rate γ_shear, convergence rate κ_conv.
   • Topology & reconnection: log10Q, h_null, Φ_open, reconnection rate R_ex, closed-flux recovery dΦ/dt.
   • Thermal recovery: EM(t), T_peak, Q_heat/Q_cool.
   • Wave channel: P_A, ε(k_0); footpoint heating: ξ_non, v_blue.
   • Energy closure: Q_req, Q_mod, ΔQ.
   • Confidence index: P(|target−model|>ε).
2. Unified Fitting Frame (three axes + path/measure)
   • Observable axis: the full set above with covariances.
   • Medium axis: Sea / Thread / Density / Tension / Tension Gradient (mapped to closed arcades, QSL/Null skeletons, and footpoint–apex energy flow).
   • Path & Measure Declaration: energy/flux propagate along gamma(ell) with measure d ell; power/dissipation accounted by ∫ J·F d ell and ∫ ε(k) dk. All formulas are plain-text in backticks, SI units.
3. Empirical Features (cross-platform)
   • Within 10–40 min post flare/microjet, EM and Φ_closed show near-exponential recovery.
   • High log10Q / low h_null → larger dΦ/dt, smaller τ_rech.
   • Footpoint diagnostics ξ_non↑/v_blue↑ co-vary with ⟨S_z⟩ and R_ex.

III. EFT Mechanisms (Sxx / Pxx)

1. Minimal Equation Set (plain text)
   • S01: dE/dt ≈ S_z + STG_work(∇Φ_global) − eta_Damp·E ; f_rec = E_rec/E_def
   • S02: τ_rech ≈ [xi_RL + eta_Damp − theta_Coh]_+^{-1} · [1 + gamma_Path·J_Path + k_SC·psi_wave + k_STG·G_env]^{-1}
   • S03: dΦ/dt ≈ b1·psi_recon·R_ex + b2·psi_topo·Q − b3·beta_TPR·Φ_open
   • S04: Q_mod ≈ Λ( Q_heat(P_A, S_z; theta_Coh) , Q_cool , L_rad ; zeta_rech )
   • S05: P_A ≈ c1·ε(k_0) · (theta_Coh − eta_Damp)_+
2. Mechanism Highlights (Pxx)
   • P01 · Path/Sea Coupling raises injection/feedback efficiency, shortening τ_rech and increasing f_rec.
   • P02 · STG / TBN set recovery limits via potential and dissipation thresholds.
   • P03 · Topology/Reconnection jointly determine reachable dΦ/dt and R_ex.
   • P04 · Coherence Window/Response Limit gate effective P_A and Q_heat.
   • P05 · Terminal Recalibration/Remodeling Efficiency (beta_TPR/zeta_rech) control the magnitude and pace of Q_mod closure.

VI. Summary Assessment

1. Strengths
   • Unified multiplicative structure (S01–S05) coherently spans injection–topology–reconnection–wave–thermal domains of recharging; parameters map to QSL/Null skeletons and footpoint energy flow.
   • Mechanism identifiability: strong posteriors for γ_Path/k_SC/k_STG/k_TBN/beta_TPR/theta_Coh/eta_Damp/xi_RL and ψ_topo/ψ_recon/ψ_wave/ζ_rech, separating topology-driven, reconnection-powered, and wave-transport contributions.
   • Engineering utility: online diagnostics centered on τ_rech–f_rec–dΦ/dt–ΔQ enable recovery-window detection and energy-budget closure.
2. Blind Spots
   • Viewing geometry and optical-flow systematics may bias S_z/γ_shear/κ_conv.
   • DEM and non-LTE uncertainties affect absolute scaling of Q_heat/Q_cool/L_rad.
3. Falsification & Experimental Suggestions
   • Falsification: see the falsification_line in the JSON front matter.
   • Experiments:
     1. 2D maps: log10Q × h_null and Φ_open × f_exp overlaid with τ_rech, f_rec, dΦ/dt, ΔQ.
     2. Multi-platform sync: HMI/PHI–AIA/IRIS–EVE high-cadence synergy to track injection–reconnection–thermal recovery chains.
     3. Topology controls: compare high/low QSL/Null regions to test elasticity of ψ_topo/ζ_rech.
     4. Noise control: reduce σ_env to tighten intervals for S_z/DEM and ε(k_0).
     5. Extrapolation checks: topology-bucket and phase leave-one-out to validate robustness of ΔRMSE gains.
