Melting Point Drift as Evidence of Phase-Locked Coherence_ A CODES-Based Reinterpretation of Crystalline Stabilization.pdf

Main article Abstract Standard models treat melting point shifts as the byproduct of purification or experimental variation. Rupert Sheldrake controversially proposed that such changes reflect a collective “morphic memory.” In this paper, we introduce a third framework: CODES (Chirality of Dynamic Emergent Systems), which posits that melting point drift is a coherence expression of structured resonance over time. Rather than memory or randomness, the system recursively phase-locks toward higher internal symmetry, raising the energy threshold for phase transition. This paper reframes melting point drift as a physical indicator of emergent order across iterations.
