Absence of Explicit Macroscopic Quantum Tunneling Decay Constant Derivation in Sources — E8 Intelligence Research
FINDING: The search results are mostly pedagogical overviews of quantum tunneling, not derivations of the macroscopic quantum tunneling (MQT) decay constant γ. The one substantive technical item (Tibet MD array) is unrelated to tunneling. No explicit γ derivation appears in the provided sources. MATH: No explicit equations for γ (the exponential decay constant in MQT, typically γ = (8/3ħ)·√(2m)·(ΔU)^(3/2)/ω₀ for a cubic potential barrier, or γ = (π/2)·(ΔU/ħω₀)·exp(−ΔU/ħω₀) in the WKB limit). The videos mention wavefunction penetration but give no quantitative formulas. The arxiv paper gives detector geometry (6 m × 6 m pools, 37,000 m² array) — no tunneling math. CONNECTION: None found. No golden ratios, base-60, or crystallographic symmetries appear in the provided text. The only numeric constants are mundane (6 m, 37,000 m², 4,300 m altitude). DEPTH: 1 — The sources are introductory or off-topic. No mathematical derivation, no constants, no geometric harmony. The query asked for a Author: Andrew Stewart Caldin, Independent Researcher, UK.
