Shadow Theory and Quantum Measurement: Source Dynamics, Event Laws, and Physical Records - Two Constitutive Completions
This monograph develops the Shadow Theory quantum measurement programme through two distinct physical constitutions, connecting source dynamics to actual events, Born-rule measurement statistics, material records and subsequent measurements. The pilot-medium construction combines canonical current production, conservative packet export, independently prepared deterministic gas contacts, finite recombination and carrier-population tracking. Under its stated assumptions, the complete ordinary tagged path converges in total variation to the minimal Bell process in unchanged physical time. An autonomous finite-clock construction supplies faithful first-pass records, retained resources and noncommuting continuation. The separate massive-configuration construction adopts Bohmian guidance and complete initial quantum equilibrium. It supplies explicit material detectors, archives, reset operations and autonomous control, with separate bounds for retained outputs and historical record fidelity. The volume integrates proofs, counterexamples and the programme’s detector, preparation and protection results. It presents conditional internal completions within declared premises, rather than a derivation of those premises from source/readout incompleteness. The pilot result is a controlled effective limit; the massive result is a separate operational completion. This preprint is offered for independent scrutiny.
