Purpose

The question addressed

R09 builds compatible interaction and matter models and states the assumptions and limits involved in refinement.

Mathematical starting point

Objects and premises used

  • The quantum description of R04 and R06, the carriers of R07 and the calibration of R08.

Main results

What the paper establishes

  • Specifies interaction and matter models compatible with the earlier structure.
  • States the assumptions under which models can be refined and where refinement stops.

Explanation

Models, not predictions by default

A matter model is compatible with the foundations when it respects their premises. A testable prediction requires a specified physical model, a quantitative calculation and an experimental protocol.

Physical interpretation and scope

What connects this to physics

Earlier proposals such as a coherence floor, a Yukawa-type force signature and photon parity or helicity effects are part of the historical record, not current predictions of the suite.
