Abstract

FINDING: Phosphorus-31 nuclear spin (I=1/2) is a stable, isolated two-level quantum system in biological tissue, but the search results provide only pedagogical material — no experimental evidence of quantum coherence in the brain. | MATH: ³¹P: Z=15, N=16, I=1/2; spin eigenfunctions α (m_I=+1/2) and β (m_I=−1/2); nuclear spin quantum number I=1/2 implies a 2-dimensional Hilbert space (dim = 2I+1 = 2); no energy-level splitting or frequency constants given in sources. | CONNECTION: I=1/2 corresponds to the fundamental spinor representation of SU(2) — the double cover of SO(3), whose rotation group has the crystallographic point-group symmetry of the tetrahedron (T_d, order 24) via the binary tetrahedral group (2T, order 24). The ratio of the two spin projections (±1/2) to the total spin magnitude (√3/2) gives 1/√3 ≈ 0.577, not a golden-ratio constant. No 0.382, 0.618, 0.786, 1.618, or 2.618 appears in any cited source. | DEPTH: 2/10 — the findings are introductory videos and a nuclear-s Author: Andrew Stewart Caldin, Independent Researcher, UK.
