IndisputableMonolith.Chemistry.VanDerWaals
The VanDerWaals module supplies noble gas atomic numbers together with proxies for polarizability, London dispersion, and Lennard-Jones parameters inside the Recognition Science chemistry scaffold. It applies the eight-tick neutrality predicate from PeriodicTable to identify closed-shell elements without any free parameters. Researchers deriving intermolecular forces from the phi-ladder would cite these definitions for zero-tuning predictions of boiling-point trends. The module consists entirely of definitions and direct computations.
claimNoble-gas atomic numbers are the set of Z satisfying the eight-window neutrality predicate on the phi-tier rails: $Z = 2,10,18,36,54,86$.
background
The module imports the Periodic Table Engine, which supplies an octave-to-eight-tick mapping for chemistry via phi-tier rails, fixed s/p/d/f block offsets, and an eight-window neutrality predicate that flags noble-gas closures. It also imports the RS time quantum tau_0 = 1 tick from Constants. These upstream objects furnish a parameter-free API for building downstream chemistry predictions.
proof idea
This is a definition module, no proofs.
why it matters in Recognition Science
The module supplies the noble-gas atomic numbers that enable the sibling declarations for boiling-point increases and Lennard-Jones potentials. It therefore instantiates the T7 eight-tick octave inside chemistry and supports the claim that van der Waals forces emerge from the Recognition Composition Law applied to the phi-ladder.
