IndisputableMonolith.Astrophysics.TidalLockingFromPhiResonance
The module assembles definitions and equalities establishing the Moon-Earth 1:1 spin-orbit resonance as a phi-resonance outcome under J-cost minimization. Astrophysicists working on tidal evolution in the Recognition Science setting would cite these objects. The module is a collection of resonance predicates and cost statements built from the imported Constants and Cost primitives.
claimThe Moon-Earth system realizes a $1:1$ synchronous rotation expressed by the resonance predicate $p:q$ with associated $J$-cost zero at the phi-ladder rung fixed by the Recognition Composition Law.
background
The module resides in the Astrophysics domain and imports the RS-native time quantum $\tau_0 = 1$ tick from Constants together with the J-cost and defect machinery from Cost. It introduces sibling objects such as moon_resonance_pq (encoding the $p:q$ ratio), moon_resonance_eq, moon_J_cost_zero, and analogous statements for Mercury and Venus that measure deviations inside phi bands.
These objects apply the J-uniqueness relation $J(x) = (x + x^{-1})/2 - 1$ to spin-orbit couplings. The local theoretical setting is the extension of the eight-tick octave and phi self-similarity to orbital mechanics, with no additional physical constants introduced beyond the RS-native units.
proof idea
this is a definition module, no proofs
why it matters in Recognition Science
The module supplies the concrete resonance predicates required for the phi-resonance account of tidal locking. It fills the astrophysical application step that follows T5 J-uniqueness and T7 octave structure, providing the Moon-Earth case that downstream solar-system analyses would invoke. No parent theorems are recorded in the used_by graph.
scope and limits
- Does not derive the 1:1 ratio from orbital dynamics equations.
- Does not contain numerical integration or simulation code.
- Does not address non-synchronous resonances or exoplanet cases.
- Does not prove stability of the resonance under perturbations.
