Prediction and Verification of Outbound Acceleration in Interstellar Object 3I/ATLAS Using Temporal-Field Coefficients

This record presents the publication Prediction and Verification of Outbound Acceleration in Interstellar Object 3I/ATLAS Using Temporal-Field Coefficients. The study applies the Physical Time (ρₜ) framework and temporal-field coefficient k = −1 to model the observed non-gravitational acceleration of the interstellar object 3I/ATLAS. Using harmonic π-scaling ratios within the ρₜ medium, the work quantitatively predicts the measured outbound acceleration without invoking sublimation or outgassing forces. Verification is achieved through comparative orbital fitting and energy-momentum conservation across heliocentric distances. The results support a continuous coupling between mass, energy, and the consumption of the Physical Time medium, extending predictive validity from interstellar to galactic scales.

Abstract

This record presents the publication Prediction and Verification of Outbound Acceleration in Interstellar Object 3I/ATLAS Using Temporal-Field Coefficients. The study applies the Physical Time (ρₜ) framework and temporal-field coefficient k = −1 to model the observed non-gravitational acceleration of the interstellar object 3I/ATLAS. Using harmonic π-scaling ratios within the ρₜ medium, the work quantitatively predicts the measured outbound acceleration without invoking sublimation or outgassing forces. Verification is achieved through comparative orbital fitting and energy-momentum conservation across heliocentric distances. The results support a continuous coupling between mass, energy, and the consumption of the Physical Time medium, extending predictive validity from interstellar to galactic scales.
