The contract

What would
kill PDT.

A theory that cannot be wrong is not worth taking seriously. PDT names the experiments. Any one of them clean against the prediction, at the precision now achievable, and the framework fails.

Predictions that would kill PDT

  • ×No coherence threshold detected at the predicted scale
  • ×No decoherence signature in the entangled photon experiment
  • ×No deviation in precision short-range coupling measurements
  • ×Direct experimental contradictions of QM V phenomenology

Signature 01

A sub-percent coherence floor in matter wave interferometry.

PDT predicts a small, specific residual coherence that does not decay to zero in the long arm limit. Standard decoherence theory predicts it does. The deviation lives below one percent and is now within reach of cold atom interferometers.

What a null meansIf the floor is absent at the precision now achievable, the resolution mechanism PDT proposes is wrong.

Signature 02

A predicted deviation in Yukawa-range coupling measurements.

The PDT effective Lagrangian produces a small but specific correction to short-range force coupling that standard QFT does not. Precision torsion and force experiments at the millimetre scale are now sensitive enough to see it.

What a null meansIf high precision experiments rule out the deviation, the coupling structure PDT derives is wrong.

Signature 03

A parity-violating phase signature in entangled photon decoherence.

PDT predicts that the decoherence pattern of a specific class of entangled photon pairs carries a parity-asymmetric phase term. Standard QM, unmodified, does not produce one.

What a null meansIf the asymmetry is absent under controlled conditions, the entanglement resolution mechanism is wrong.

The full phenomenology

QM V carries the precise predictions.
