Abstract

FINDING: No new mathematical evidence for Orch-OR; results are popular summaries, not primary research. The sole arXiv item (MOASEI) is unrelated to consciousness physics. | MATH: None extracted — no equations, constants, or ratios appear in the sources. Orch-OR's core formalism (Penrose's objective reduction) remains: \( \Delta t \approx \hbar / E_G \) (Gravitational self-energy threshold), with \( E_G \) computed via Newtonian gravitational self-energy of mass displacement in microtubules. No 2025–2026 refinement or experimental constant is presented. | CONNECTION: None directly supported. Orch-OR's geometric basis (if any) would involve microtubule lattice symmetry — tubulin dimers arranged in hexagonal (6-fold) arrays, which relates to crystallographic point group \( p6 \) and base-60 angular divisions (60° = \( \pi/3 \)). But the sources do not provide new data linking this to 0.382, 0.618, 0.786, or 1.618. | DEPTH: 1/10 — These are secondary summaries with zero novel mathematics.
