IndisputableMonolith.Physics.Superfluidity
The Superfluidity module defines the Bose-Einstein occupation number at temperature T and derives associated critical temperatures, the lambda point for helium-4, and quantized vortex circulation within the Recognition Science framework. Condensed matter physicists would cite these results to connect the J-cost formalism to macroscopic superfluid phenomena. The module consists of sequential definitions and positivity theorems built directly on the imported J-cost core.
claimThe Bose-Einstein occupation number is $n(T) = 1/(e^{J(T)} - 1)$, where $J$ is the cost function. The BEC temperature satisfies $T_{BEC} > 0$, the lambda point for $^4$He lies in an experimentally consistent range, and vortex circulation is quantized.
background
This module extends the J-cost framework imported from IndisputableMonolith.Cost.JcostCore to model superfluidity. It introduces the occupation number as the central object, followed by positivity statements for occupation and temperatures, specific results for the lambda point in helium-4, quantized vortices, and the critical exponent. The setting assumes the Recognition Composition Law and phi-ladder conventions to obtain temperature-dependent quantities from the underlying forcing chain.
proof idea
The module proceeds by defining the occupation number and critical temperatures, then establishing positivity and range constraints through direct algebraic reductions on the J function. It applies basic properties from the JcostCore import with no complex tactics, relying on sequential positivity arguments and explicit range checks for helium-4 and vortices.
why it matters in Recognition Science
This module supplies the microscopic J-cost basis for superfluidity and Bose-Einstein condensation, supporting derivations of quantized circulation and critical exponents. It aligns with the eight-tick octave and D=3 dimensions by modeling collective behavior in the Recognition framework. No downstream theorems are listed, but the declarations close the gap between the unified forcing chain and condensed-matter observables.
