AntiMatter: Wilson-Line and Cosmology Audit - Efficiency-Dependent Energy Bounds and Reproducibility (v1.23.1)
AntiMatter v1.23.1 is a theoretical research checkpoint and reproducibility release. It preserves the August 17, 2026 v1.23 audit and adds an efficiency-dependent energy calculation. No successful derivation of the observed matter-antimatter asymmetry or completed unified theory is claimed. The inherited audit identifies a compact-character obstruction in the specified gauged scalar model, constructs a conditional standalone Wilson-line alternative, corrects the physical source normalization, and quantifies unresolved energy and cosmology constraints. The replacement's 0.26717% endpoint harmonic fraction is distinguished from a 0.88784% continuity budget that includes unported scalar stress. New in v1.23.1: necessary winding bounds are extended to response efficiencies of 1, 0.75, 0.5 and 0.25. At half the benchmark efficiency, the conservative one-height winding minimum rises from 49 to 98, and the strict 1% kinetic-to-radiation minimum rises from 119 to 238. The release distinguishes a conservative energy budget A from the full 2A cosine drop and a period scale F from the full repeat interval 2*pi*F. Reproducibility: a fresh replay matches all 21 scientific CSV tables and the summary JSON exactly. Four rendered images and the two manifests containing their hashes differ; no unexpected differences were found. The exact v1.22 parent archive is included as a dependency. Verifying that archive is not an independent rerun of its scientific calculations. In More Basic Terms This project asks whether a chain of interacting fields could help explain why matter survived over antimatter. One proposed mathematical route fails a symmetry test. A separate extra-dimensional construction remains possible under stated assumptions, but its energy supply, particle interactions and early-Universe history are unfinished. The new calculation shows that even modest inefficiency makes the required field motion harder to supply. This is progress in testing the idea and identifying its next falsifiable steps, not a claim that the problem has been solved. The original v1.23 publication-HOLD wording is retained as historical research status. Publishing this checkpoint does not imply that its open thermal, driver, CP-violation, anomaly, relic or domain-wall questions have been resolved. Prepared with AI assistance; no independent peer review or experimental validation is asserted.
