Each card states epistemic status (canonical, addendum, partial retraction, draft, exploratory), Zenodo DOI, date and main contribution. Six reading paths are suggested by reviewer profile (cosmologist, phenomenologist/modified gravity, metrologist, BEC physicist, neuroscientist, biophysicist). Two coherence notes close the page: status of quantum mechanics across the corpus (Papers IV/VIII/VII form a unified position — ΔM stays classical; the quantum appears either as an emergent signature or as a formal lab analogue, with Paper VII explicitly rejecting Penrose-Hameroff microtubule hypotheses), and H₀ reconciliation across the corpus (Paper II 76.2 superseded by Paper XV §3.5–3.6 → 73.42 ± 1.01 with the forward prediction H₀(z=0.5) ≃ 71.5 km/s/Mpc). Top navigation, mobile menu, footer and homepage entry-card on all 11 site pages now link to the new map. https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.20040025 aether-tstu-2026-05-05-paper Tue, 05 May 2026 14:00:00 +0000 paper Paper XV demonstrates that the dissipative integral of Paper XIV (t_phys = (1/Λ²)·∫φ̇²dτ) simultaneously governs three physically distinct regimes — atomic (rarefaction asymptote of isolated clocks plus cosmic-ray jitter), cosmological (H₀(z) via linear-growth reframing), and photonic (geometric line-of-sight bound across cosmic voids) — with a total parameter count of only two TSTU-specific dimensionless amplitudes (α = 0.0815 and β = 0.095). Three observationally independent falsifiable predictions are committed to. Major H₀ prediction update: a non-circular ΛCDM-pure refit of Pantheon+SH0ES with full STAT+SYS covariance yields H₀ = 73.42 ± 1.01 km/s/Mpc with χ²/dof = 0.897. The Paper II value (76.2 km/s/Mpc) is identified as a statistical circularity artifact of the joint TSTU-cosmological likelihood under the fixed-β prior, and the new TSTU prediction is H₀(z=0.5) ≃ 71.5 km/s/Mpc, in 1.90σ marginal tension with ΛCDM-pure and to be discriminated by TDCOSMO 2027–2030 gravitational-time-delay measurements. https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.20005788 aether-tstu-2026-05-03-paper Sat, 03 May 2026 14:00:00 +0000 paper Paper XIV formalizes the central thesis of the TSTU programme: physical time is not a background dimension but the dissipative integral following discrete topological ruptures of the scalar field — t_phys = (1/Λ²)·∫φ̇²dτ. Numerical validation by event-driven relaxation: cosmological/terrestrial temporal-rarefaction ratio = 1.343 ± 1.3% (γ variation), reproducible across independent Python/numpy/scipy environments. New simulator mode "Event & Time" replaces the legacy Vacuum mode: interactive 2D φ surface with draggable atoms (fusion = event = tick), ambient cosmic event-noise slider, live t_phys integral, and rigorous Klein-Gordon 1D validation sub-mode reproducing the 1.343 ratio. Guided tour reorganized: Event & Time is now step 1, the conceptual key for all other modes (Solar, P9, Galaxy, Black Hole, JWST, Hubble, Brain). The H₀ tension is reinterpreted as the direct observational signature of temporal rarefaction in cosmic voids (§8.3). https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.18471407 aether-tstu-2026-04-26-paper Sun, 26 Apr 2026 12:00:00 +0000 paper The simulator now has a dedicated Voids mode visualizing the key prediction of Paper VI: μ(voids) ≃ 1.018 with E_G deficit of 1.09 %, falsifiable with Euclid DR2/DR3 (2027–2030). Paper VI formally proves that introducing an auxiliary constraint field E (rendering Γ_evt action-derivable) induces corrections δμ/μ ≲ 10⁻⁷ — preserving exactly the December 2025 preregistered prediction. https://www.aether-tstu.com/paper-v.html aether-tstu-2026-04-25-simulator Sat, 25 Apr 2026 12:00:00 +0000 simulator The site is reorganized into 3 pillars: Cosmology, Biology/Consciousness, Quantum physics.
