Closed-Form Dual-State Predictions for Isoscalar Yield Scaling, Medium-Mass Ground-State Stability, and Neutron Skin Bifurcations in Calcium Isotopic Chains

Standard nuclear density functionals diverge at extreme neutron-to-proton asymmetries. This priority timestamp manuscript presents blind, parameter-free numerical predictions for active experimental campaigns at FRIB and RIKEN RIBF. Using a closed-form isoscalar variational mapping with zero tuned constants, this work resolves the long-standing tension between hadronic, dipole, and weak (CREX) neutron skin probes while establishing strict, non-negotiable falsification thresholds for fragmentation yield scaling, medium-mass bound survival (62,64Ca, 68,70Ti, 70,76Cr), extreme calcium neutron skins, and the 22Si mirror charge radius ahead of incoming facility data releases.

Abstract

Standard nuclear density functionals diverge at extreme neutron-to-proton asymmetries. This priority timestamp manuscript presents blind, parameter-free numerical predictions for active experimental campaigns at FRIB and RIKEN RIBF. Using a closed-form isoscalar variational mapping with zero tuned constants, this work resolves the long-standing tension between hadronic, dipole, and weak (CREX) neutron skin probes while establishing strict, non-negotiable falsification thresholds for fragmentation yield scaling, medium-mass bound survival (62,64Ca, 68,70Ti, 70,76Cr), extreme calcium neutron skins, and the 22Si mirror charge radius ahead of incoming facility data releases.
