IndisputableMonolith.Physics.MassHierarchy
Collects charged-lepton and light-quark masses in GeV, the RS phi-cascade mass map, and the Koide parameter. Phenomenologists matching the phi-ladder formula to PDG data cite the observed tables and cascade lemmas. Mostly definitions plus short algebraic identities; Koide equals 2/3 exactly on the cascade values.
claimDefines observed charged-lepton masses $m_e,m_\mu,m_\tau$ (GeV), up- and down-quark mass triples, the cascade mass step along the $\varphi$-ladder, and the Koide parameter $Q=(m_e+m_\mu+m_\tau)/(\sqrt{m_e}+\sqrt{m_\mu}+\sqrt{m_\tau})^2$, with the identity $Q=2/3$ for cascade masses.
background
Recognition Science places rest masses on a geometric ladder whose common ratio is the golden number $\varphi$ fixed by T6. The native mass formula is yardstick times $\varphi$ raised to (rung $-8+$ gap$(Z)$). This module sits in the Physics domain and imports only the RS constants (including the tick $\tau_0$).
It records PDG-style GeV values for the three charged leptons and the light up- and down-type quarks, together with a cascade construction that steps masses down from a Higgs-scale seed by successive factors of $\varphi$. The Koide combination of the three charged-lepton masses is the classical empirical ratio that sits near $2/3$; here it is evaluated on the cascade triple.
proof idea
Definition-heavy module, not a single theorem. Observed mass tables are literal numeric definitions. The cascade map and its decrease lemma are direct comparisons of successive $\varphi$-powers. The Koide claim is a short algebraic verification that the three cascade masses satisfy $Q=2/3$ exactly. The Higgs-seed cascade is a parameter pack plus the resulting tower.
why it matters in Recognition Science
Supplies the concrete mass hierarchy data and the exact Koide identity that any later RS spectrum or rung-assignment theorem must match. Anchors the primer mass formula (yardstick $\cdot\varphi^{\mathrm{rung}-8+\mathrm{gap}(Z)}$) against charged-lepton and light-quark numbers. The identity $Q=2/3$ is a sharp, falsifiable signature of pure $\varphi$-cascade kinematics. No downstream edges are recorded yet; the module is a leaf pack for hierarchy and flavor claims still to be wired.
scope and limits
- Does not derive the absolute yardstick or Higgs seed from the forcing chain.
- Does not treat neutrino masses or seesaw scales.
- Does not prove CKM/PMNS mixing or charge assignments.
- Does not claim PDG equals RS beyond the tabulated comparison points.
- Does not address running couplings or threshold corrections.
