IndisputableMonolith.QFT.Decoherence
The QFT.Decoherence module supplies reference timescales and decoherence functions for Recognition Science derivations. Researchers building QFT from the RS framework cite it to quantify environment-induced loss of coherence. It imports the fundamental tick from Constants and dynamic scales from GravityBridge, then defines EnvironmentCoupling together with lemmas showing decoherenceTime decreases with modes and coupling strength.
claimThe module defines the reference tick $τ_0$ in seconds, the golden ratio $φ$, gap parameters such as gap45, $τ_{Planck}$, and $τ_{bio}$, the environment coupling strength, and the decoherence time $τ_d$ that decreases with the number of modes and with coupling; it also supplies the predicate isQuantum distinguishing quantum regimes.
background
Recognition Science takes the fundamental time quantum as the tick $τ_0 = 1$ (RS-native) from the Constants module. This module converts that tick to seconds via tau0_seconds and introduces auxiliary scales (gap45, tau_planck, tau_bio, timescale_gap_log10, gap_range) that locate different physical regimes on the phi-ladder. EnvironmentCoupling is introduced as the interaction strength between a system and its surroundings, while decoherenceTime is expressed in terms of that coupling and the number of modes.
proof idea
this is a definition module, no proofs
why it matters in Recognition Science
The module feeds the parent QFT module, which assembles Tier 2 derivations of quantum field theory fundamentals from the Recognition Science framework. It supplies the decoherence machinery that connects the imported Flight.GravityBridge (with its T_dyn for rotating lab devices) to the loss of quantum coherence, closing one link in the chain from classical ILG weights to QFT observables.
scope and limits
- Does not derive a master equation for the density matrix evolution.
- Does not compute numerical decoherence rates for concrete laboratory systems.
- Does not incorporate relativistic or gravitational corrections beyond the imported bridge.
- Does not define creation or annihilation operators for the QFT fields.
