IndisputableMonolith.Cosmology.PrimordialSpectrum
The Cosmology.PrimordialSpectrum module supplies definitions for the primordial power spectrum and its observables in Recognition Science cosmology. It encodes the scalar spectral index n_s ≈ 0.9649 matching Planck 2018. Cosmologists comparing RS-derived inflation to CMB data cite these values. The module consists of definitions and constants built on the constants and cost modules.
claimThe scalar spectral index satisfies $n_s \≈ 0.9649$ (Planck 2018). The module introduces the power spectrum $P(k)$ together with the observed spectrum, tilt predictions from the phi-ladder, and the tensor-to-scalar ratio upper bound.
background
The module operates in the cosmology domain and imports the fundamental RS time quantum $\tau_0 = 1$ tick from Constants, described as the fundamental RS time quantum (RS-native). It also imports the Cost module for the J-cost function. The setting uses RS-native units with $c=1$, $\hbar=\phi^{-5}$, and derives fluctuations from the recognition composition law and the phi fixed point. The doc comment identifies $n_s \approx 0.9649$ (Planck 2018) as the central observed value.
proof idea
this is a definition module, no proofs
why it matters in Recognition Science
The module supplies the observed spectral index and related quantities that connect the forcing chain (T5 J-uniqueness through T8 D=3) to cosmological data. It supports amplitude_derivation and fluctuations_from_jcost inside the module. No external used_by theorems are recorded, positioning it as the interface between RS fundamentals and observational cosmology.
scope and limits
- Does not derive n_s from the J-uniqueness theorem.
- Does not include the full inflationary potential or dynamics.
- Does not specify the efold number from first principles.
- Does not compute the complete CMB angular power spectrum.
