Module collecting RS-native neutrino mass hierarchy quantities: solar and atmospheric mass-squared splittings, a cosmological sum bound, and a seesaw construction that ties a light neutrino mass to Dirac and Majorana scales. It links the seesaw heavy scale to explicit powers of the golden ratio (notably φ^7 and φ^13). Physicists matching oscillation data to the phi-ladder would cite it. Content is mostly definitions plus short algebraic lemmas on φ-powers.

claimCollects neutrino hierarchy data $\Delta m_{21}^2$, $\Delta m_{31}^2$, a sum-of-masses bound, and the seesaw map $m_\nu \sim m_D^2/M_R$, with typical Dirac and Majorana scales and mass ratios expressed via powers of $\varphi=(1+\sqrt{5})/2$ (including $\varphi^7$ and $\varphi^{13}$).

background

Recognition Science places particle masses on a $\varphi$-ladder (yardstick times $\varphi$ to a rung offset). Neutrinos are the lightest charged-lepton partners; their tiny masses are usually explained by a type-I seesaw: a Dirac mass $m_D$ suppressed by a heavy Majorana scale $M_R$, giving $m_\nu \approx m_D^2/M_R$.

This module sits in the StandardModel domain and imports RS constants together with rigorous interval bounds on $\varphi$. Sibling definitions name the solar and atmospheric squared-mass differences, a sum bound, typical $m_D$ and $M_R$, the seesaw formula itself, and explicit $\varphi$-power auxiliaries used to connect $M_R$ to the ladder.

Upstream, Constants supplies the RS time quantum and related units; PhiBounds supplies algebraic enclosures of $\varphi$ via rational bounds on $\sqrt{5}$, so numerical claims about $\varphi^n$ can be discharged without floating-point gaps.

proof idea

Definition-heavy module: mass-squared symbols, seesawMass, typical Dirac/Majorana scales, and massRatio are introduced as defs or abbrevs. Short lemmas (seesaw_gives_small_mass, seesaw_scale_phi_connection, phi_pow7, phi_pow13) reduce inequalities or equalities by rewriting powers of $\varphi$ and applying the imported PhiBounds enclosures; Fibonacci identities appear for the $\varphi^{13}$ auxiliary. No deep tactic scripts; structure is data plus algebraic scale checks.

why it matters in Recognition Science

Gives the Standard Model sector a concrete home for neutrino hierarchy inside the RS mass formula (yardstick $\times \varphi^{\mathrm{rung}-8+\mathrm{gap}(Z)}$). The seesaw-to-$\varphi$ link lets oscillation scales sit on the same ladder as charged fermions, consistent with T6 ($\varphi$ as self-similar fixed point) and the overall forcing chain. used_by is empty in the graph snapshot, so this module is presently a leaf library for later SM or cosmology assembly rather than an immediate parent of a named theorem. It does not yet close a paper proposition on its own; it packages the hierarchy inputs those arguments need.
