IndisputableMonolith.Physics.CMBTemperature
This module defines constants and derived quantities for cosmic microwave background temperature in the Recognition Science framework, including hydrogen ionization energy, Boltzmann constant, recombination temperature, redshift, and an approximation to the observed 2.725 K value. Researchers modeling early-universe thermodynamics via J-cost would reference these definitions. The module consists of definitions and positivity statements built directly on the imported JcostCore.
claimDefines $E_i = 13.6$ eV (hydrogen ionization energy), $k_B$ in eV/K, recombination temperature $T_r$ in K, recombination redshift $z_r$, CMB temperature $T_{CMB}$, and the approximation $T_{CMB} = 2.725$ K with associated positivity statements.
background
The module imports Mathlib and IndisputableMonolith.Cost.JcostCore. JcostCore supplies the Recognition Composition Law J(xy) + J(x/y) = 2 J(x) J(y) + 2 J(x) + 2 J(y) together with the J-cost functional equation and phi-ladder structures. The module opens with the hydrogen ionization energy in eV and proceeds through eta, recombination temperature, and redshift to the final CMB temperature value.
proof idea
this is a definition module, no proofs
why it matters in Recognition Science
Supplies the temperature scale for the cosmic microwave background epoch within Recognition Science. It feeds calculations that connect the J-cost core to observable cosmology and indirectly supports the alpha band and eight-tick octave through the shared phi-ladder machinery.
scope and limits
- Does not derive CMB temperature from the T0-T8 forcing chain.
- Does not compute the full CMB power spectrum.
- Does not incorporate observational error bars beyond positivity.
- Does not interface with external data sets.
