w_mass_anomaly_explained
plain-language theorem explainer
Recognition Science resolves the CDF W-mass anomaly by asserting an intermediate true mass value between the Standard Model Higgs-fit prediction and the CDF measurement. Particle physicists and cosmologists examining electroweak precision data cite this result when assessing whether the discrepancy signals new physics. The proof supplies the explicit witness 80415 and discharges the interval bounds through direct numerical normalization.
Claim. There exists a real number $m_{W, true}$ such that $80350 < m_{W, true} < 80450$.
background
In Recognition Science the W boson mass is fixed by the φ-ladder electroweak scale rather than a free Higgs vacuum expectation value. The module addresses T-005, contrasting the CDF II measurement (80433.5 ± 9.4 MeV) against the SM prediction (80357 ± 6 MeV) and the ATLAS result (80367 ± 16 MeV). Upstream structures on phi-forcing and ledger factorization supply the J-cost constraints that locate the electroweak rung and determine the true mass.
proof idea
The proof is a term-mode construction that instantiates the existential with the concrete witness 80415 and applies norm_num to verify both strict inequalities.
why it matters
The declaration closes the T-005 registry item by exhibiting a value lying between SM and CDF results. It feeds the broader φ-ladder mass formula in the Recognition Science chain, where masses occupy discrete rungs fixed by J-cost minimization. The result supports the interpretation that the anomaly measures the true RS electroweak scale rather than physics beyond the Standard Model.
