Predictions and Falsifiability of the MIND Framework: A Roadmap for Empirical Validation

This document establishes the predictive structure and falsifiability criteria of the MIND (Momentum in Inertial and Non-Inertial Dynamics) framework, explicitly defining the empirical conditions under which the framework can be confirmed, constrained, or decisively falsified. Rather than presenting post hoc explanations, this work formulates quantitative, testable predictions across multiple physical regimes, including galactic dynamics, compact objects (Atlas Cores, formerly known as black holes), and cosmology. Each prediction is associated with specific observables, measurement precision requirements, and experimental or observational timelines, spanning current and near-future instruments such as EHT, LIGO/Virgo, LISA, and large-scale cosmological surveys. A central contribution of this paper is the explicit formulation of critical falsification conditions, including multi-regime consistency tests designed to eliminate degeneracies and prevent parameter tuning. The document therefore defines a clear empirical contract between the MIND framework and observational reality. This work is intended to serve as the methodological backbone of the MIND research program, providing transparency, testability, and scientific accountability. If the outlined predictions are confirmed, MIND would represent a unified momentum–geometry interpretation across astrophysical and cosmological scales. If they are falsified, the framework is designed to be conclusively rejected.
