Artian Absolute-Clock Two-Test Preregistration: Matter-Wave Sagnac and Faraday Polarization-Coherence Tests
Abstract
A sealed two-instrument search for an unprogrammed clock-reference projection This preregistration compares two fixed point hypotheses using independent matter-wave Sagnac and Faraday polarization-coherence instruments. Each instrument uses four physical histories and a camera-corrected Gram quotient: \[ R_d^{\rm obs} =\frac{1}{C_dN_d^{\rm ord}} \sqrt{\frac{|D_{\tau T}^{(d)}D_{T\tau}^{(d)}|} {|D_{\tau\tau}^{(d)}D_{TT}^{(d)}|}}. \] After physical activation, the frozen fork is \[ \boxed{ R_d^{\rm standard}=1, \qquad R_d^{\rm QTT}=\cos\!\left(\frac{\pi}{8}\right) =0.9238795325112867\ldots }. \] Version 3.1 adds a post-seal standard-physics completeness gate for rotating atomic and ring-cavity platforms. The ordinary model must include or bound every applicable centre-of-mass, internal-spin, field, rotational Röntgen, polarization, backscatter, trap, Zeeman, and Stark term. In compact form, \[ H_{\rm rot}^{\rm std} =H_0-\Omega\cdot(L+F+\ell_F) +H_{\rm RR}+H_Z+H_{\rm Stark}+H_{\rm trap} +H_{\rm bs}+H_{\rm pol}+\cdots, \] with the rotation-induced hyperfine row \[ \boxed{ H_{\rm RH}=-\Omega\cdot F, \qquad \delta\omega_{\rm RH}=-\Omega_{\parallel}\Delta m_F. } \] The standard-null ledger, parameter provenance, held-out controls, and adequacy thresholds are frozen before target labels. If an applicable row is unresolved, the packet returns INELIGIBLE_NO_THEORY_VERDICT. No target digit, ratio orientation, compatibility band, power floor, or numerical decision threshold is changed. Operation eligibility and reporting are amended as described below. Concept DOI: 10.5281/zenodo.21376520 Main book: Quantum Traction Theory: Main Book v10.01 Website: quantumtraction.org Version 3.2: operation qualification and retained observations The numerical targets, ratio orientation, decision regions and historical seals are unchanged. A 22.5-degree or 45-degree component is no longer excluded by its angle alone: its physical transfer must be independently established. Common-operation cancellation and signal-preserving calibration are proved; both hypotheses must remain identifiable. Every acquired record is retained. After authorized unblinding, QTT-like, ordinary-like and unexpected outcomes are reported, including observations that do not qualify for a theory verdict. This is a prospective amendment, not a retrospective resealing of data.
