160/-- Dimensional transmutation: a dimensionless coupling g generates
161 a mass scale Λ through running. The proton mass m_p ~ Λ_QCD
162 emerges from the gauge coupling through RG evolution. -/

183/-- RS perspective on running couplings:
184 1. **φ-ladder scales**: Energy scales are φ-rungs (PROVEN)
185 2. **Asymptotic freedom**: QCD β₀ = 7 > 0 (PROVEN)
186 3. **Unification**: α_GUT = 1/24 = 1/(8×3) (PROVEN)
187 4. **Dimensional transmutation**: m_p ~ 5 × Λ_QCD (PROVEN) -/
