IndisputableMonolith.Masses.MassHierarchy
The MassHierarchy module organizes particle masses in Recognition Science as coherent energy scaled by integer powers of phi on a discrete ladder. It is cited by derivations of the proton-electron ratio, lepton masses, and proton mass. The module assembles rung-based definitions from the phi-forcing and anchor modules without proofs of its own.
claimMass in RS units is $m = E_{ m coh} \cdot \phi^r$ where $r$ is the rung on the $\phi$-ladder.
background
Recognition Science places all masses on a phi-ladder whose spacing is fixed by the self-similar fixed point of the J-cost ledger. The upstream PhiForcing module states: "This module proves that φ is forced by self-similarity in a discrete ledger with J-cost." The Anchor module supplies the canonical constants: "This module centralises the parameter-free constants described in the mass manuscripts." MassHierarchy collects the rung assignments used by later mass derivations.
proof idea
This is a definition module, no proofs.
why it matters in Recognition Science
MassHierarchy supplies the rung definitions that feed the proton-to-electron mass ratio (C-009), lepton mass ladder (P-011), proton mass derivation (C-008), and hierarchy problem dissolution (P-013). It implements the mass formula E_coh · φ^r that follows from the eight-tick octave and D = 3 forced in the UnifiedForcingChain.
scope and limits
- Does not derive numerical mass values.
- Does not claim experimental agreement.
- Does not contain the phi-forcing proofs.
- Does not define the base coherent energy E_coh.
