Topological Scaling and Metric Deformation in Non-Linear Spacetime: Quantifying Umbral Totality Compression
Invariant Vector Fields and Scalar Projections in a Rigid-Body Geodetic Baseline In classical rigid-body geodesy, the instantaneous duration of a total solar eclipse τ_tot at a fixed terrestrial surface coordinate is modeled linearly as the scalar projection of the relative velocity vector between the lunar umbra and the observer.
