Paper 16: Zero-Inaccessible Balance

This record contains the manuscript, compiled PDF, figure asset, and supporting reproducibility files for Phase-Model Paper 16, “Zero-Inaccessible Balance, Sign-Splitting, and a Consistency Audit of the Electromagnetic Coupling.” The note develops a zero-inaccessible interpretation of physical balance, introduces a minimal phase-loop operator model with a discrete sign-splitting family, and distinguishes between primitive and descendant dimensionless invariants. It further performs a low-energy consistency audit for the electromagnetic coupling using the repository’s current calibration pipeline. Included files cover the manuscript source, the compiled manuscript PDF, the regime-map figure used in the paper, a machine-readable numeric snapshot, a representative sample table, and the regeneration script used to reproduce the supporting bundle.
