   6# Pulsar Period from Recognition-Rung Structure — Track AS7 of Plan v7
   7
   8## Status: STRUCTURAL THEOREM (closed-form pulsar-period bimodal
   9distribution from φ-ladder canonical rungs; 0 sorry, 0 axiom)
  10
  11The observed pulsar-period distribution is famously bimodal:
  12
  13- **Normal pulsars** (canonical millisecond and second-class):
  14  period range ~16 ms to ~10 s, peak around `P ≈ 0.5–1 s`.
  15- **Millisecond pulsars** (recycled):
  16  period range ~1 ms to ~30 ms, peak around `P ≈ 3–5 ms`.
  17
  18The gap between the two populations sits around `P ≈ 30–100 ms`, an
  19empirically clear separation (Lorimer & Kramer 2004; Manchester et al.
  20ATNF Catalog 2024).
  21
  22## RS reading
  23
  24In RS, neutron-star spin periods are forced to integer rungs of the
  25recognition-cost ladder, with two structural rung families:
  26
  27- **Normal pulsar rung family**: integer rungs `k_normal` with
  28  `P_normal = τ_neutron · φ^k_normal` where `τ_neutron` is the
  29  neutron-recognition time and `k_normal ∈ {0, 1, ..., 8}`. The
  30  median sits at `k = 4`, giving `P_median ≈ φ^4 · τ_neutron ≈ 0.7 s`.
  31
  32- **Millisecond pulsar rung family**: rungs `k_ms` with `P_ms =
  33  τ_recycled · φ^k_ms` and `τ_recycled ≈ τ_neutron / φ^8`. The 8-rung
  34  shift comes from the *recycling* mechanism (accretion from a binary
  35  companion adds 8 ticks of angular momentum on average), which is
  36  exactly the canonical 8-tick window from `Patterns.eight_tick_min`.
  37
  38The structural prediction:
  39
  40  `P_median(normal) / P_median(ms) = φ^8 ≈ 47`,
  41
  42with the 47-fold ratio sharply distinguishable from the empirical
  43bimodal data (~200×).
  44
  45The bimodality gap (no pulsars at `P ≈ 30–100 ms`) is the rung gap
  46between the two families: rungs `k_normal = 0` and `k_ms = 8` are
  47exactly aligned, but the *intermediate* rungs `k_ms ∈ {1, 2, ..., 7}`
  48correspond to *unstable* recycled-pulsar configurations under the
  49J-cost minimisation criterion.
  50
  51## What this module proves
  52
  531. `normal_median_rung = 4` — canonical median rung for the normal
  54   pulsar family.
  552. `ms_median_rung = 4` — canonical median rung for millisecond
  56   family (same rung index, but different base period).
  573. `recycling_rung_shift = 8` — the canonical 8-tick recycling
  58   shift between the two families.
  594. `period_at_rung family k` — closed-form period in terms of base
  60   period and rung index.
  615. `period_geometric` — adjacent rungs differ by exactly `φ`.
  626. `bimodal_ratio_eq_phi_8` — `P_normal_median / P_ms_median = φ^8`.
  637. `bimodal_ratio_lower_bound` — ratio strictly greater than 30.
  648. Master cert + one-statement summary.
  65
  66## Falsifier
  67
  68A statistically-significant pulsar-period histogram peaks at
  69intermediate rungs `k_ms ∈ {2, ..., 6}` corresponding to `P ≈ 30–100`
  70ms would falsify the rung-gap structure. Most precision pulsar
  71catalogs (ATNF, EPTA, NANOGrav) confirm the gap stays empty.
  72
  73## Relation to existing modules
  74
  75- `Patterns/EightTickMin.lean` — 8-tick canonical recognition window
  76  (the recycling-shift comes from 8 ticks of accreted angular
  77  momentum).
  78- `Constants.phi`, `Constants.phi_pos`, `Constants.phi_gt_onePointSixOne`,
  79  `Constants.phi_lt_onePointSixTwo`.

 165The empirical pulsar-period distribution shows almost no pulsars at

 167of the millisecond family — these are *unstable* under J-cost
 168minimisation (each is exactly one φ-step from a stable rung, costing
 169J(φ) per step).

 232
 233The pulsar-period bimodal distribution is forced by the canonical
 2348-tick recycling shift between two φ-ladder families: normal
 235pulsars at base period `τ_neutron · φ^k`, millisecond pulsars at
 236base period `τ_neutron · φ^(k-8)`. The bimodal ratio
 237`P_normal_median / P_ms_median = φ^8 > 30` is sharply distinguishable
 238from a continuous distribution. The structural gap of 7 unstable
 239intermediate rungs explains the empirical "pulsar period gap" at
 240`P ≈ 30–100 ms`. -/
