Abstract

Experimental parameters involve superposition size \( \Delta x \), mass \( m \), and coherence time \( t \) such that \( \Delta x \cdot m \cdot t \) approaches Planck scale sensitivity. | CONNECTION: No direct geometric ratios (0.382, 0.618, 0.786, 1.618, 2.618) or base-60 or crystallographic symmetries appear in these findings.
