# PAPER_2177 — The Dated-Kill Register (Battery II): Twenty-Two Funded Experimental Programs Standing Guard Over the 18xx Frontier Resolutions

**Author:** Daniel T. Murphy
**Project:** UQFF (Unified Quantum Field Framework) — Star-Magic
**Date:** 2026-08-13
**Landmark Type:** Prediction-registry expansion — PAPER_2161's battery grammar scaled to the frontier era
**Seminal Sources:** bands 1811-1860 (the frontier-tension and sector-suite arcs), PAPER_2161
(battery grammar + scorekeeping rule), PAPER_2176 (correlated-shift falsifier class)
**Status:** Formal landmark whitepaper — UQFF canonical

## Abstract

PAPER_2161 registered seven exact predictions with funded deciding experiments. The 18xx drain
bands have since wired **five times that exposure**: every major open tension of 2024-2026
observational physics now carries a UQFF resolution with an explicit kill condition, and the
deciding instruments are launched, funded, or scheduled. This landmark consolidates the full
register — **twenty-two dated programs guarding forty-plus wired claims** — under the PAPER_2161
scorekeeping rule (confirmed → postdiction; falsified → permanent row + composition review,
never lattice revaluation). The register is the framework's operational answer to "is this
falsifiable?": between 2026 and 2035, nearly every entry gets its verdict from an instrument
already in existence. The gate pins the register's size, each program's guarded members, and
the A4 dating that prevents silent window-widening after data lands.

Cross-cutting guards: the **correlated-shift falsifier** (SSq/K_Mex = 0.2736 must move w₀,
θ_QCD, JWST, FRB-slope, and ε_K together — five domains, PAPER_2176/1849); the **coupled ρ_SCm
falsifier** (a wrong-scale gravity deviation at ~157 m breaks Casimir *and* Λ simultaneously,
P1852); and the **method-level clause** (a projectable observable with no second route falsifies
the closed Lagrangian itself, PAPER_2175).

## 2. Register Properties

1. **Density:** 22 programs, 40+ guarded members, ~9-year decision horizon (2026-2035). The
   original battery risked seven numbers; Battery II risks the frontier arc entire.
2. **Family-aware scoring:** several programs adjudicate *within* families (DUNE between δ_CP
   routes; DARWIN between detection kernels; J-PARC among neutron routes) — under PAPER_2170 a
   route falsification indicts one composition while its sibling stands; the lattice is never
   revalued by any single outcome (Rule 2 + PAPER_2161 scorekeeping).
3. **Mutual exposure:** many members share primitives; the register is not 40 independent
   bets but one lattice exposed 40 ways — a systematic miss pattern (e.g., every Φ_res-dressed
   member failing together) would localize the defective primitive, which is itself the
   framework functioning as designed.
4. **A4 hardening:** each window is dated here and pinned in the gate; widening any window
   after its experiment reports requires editing a cited assertion — visible and attributable.

## 3. Wiring

```
uqff_calculator.py
    DISPATCH['PAPER_2177'] -> the 22-program register with dates and guarded members,
                              cross-cutting falsifier trio, and register properties
```

Gate assertions pin: register size ≥ 22, guarded-member count ≥ 40, the three cross-cutting
falsifiers present, family-aware scoring statement, and the A4 dating clause.

---

## NOT REPLACEMENT

Every program in the register is a conventional experiment testing conventionally-defined
observables; UQFF simply states, in advance and immutably, what it expects each to find and
what outcome kills which composition. The register replaces nothing — it schedules judgment.

## REVISION 2026-08-15 — Register extension (bands 1861-1910): +8 programs, +14 members

Sequential drain past the 1860 frontier wired new dated predictions that the register must carry
(A4: dated at wire, pinned before data):

| # | Program | Date | Guards (wired members) |
|:-:|---|:-:|---|
| 23 | MICROSCOPE-2 / EP | 2028+ | η = 0 PREDICTED null — buoyancy composition-independence (P1880) |
| 24 | NNBAR @ ESS | 2028-30 | τ_nn̄ = 1.75×10⁹ s ∈ [1.3×10⁸, 10¹⁰]; LANL d_n route-2 2.96×10⁻²⁸ co-guard, family-scored with #17's P1847 route (P1888) |
| 25 | ITER / SPARC | 2028/2035 | Q = SO_5 = 10 ± 1 (P1887); T_opt = 15 keV co-guard |
| 26 | ALPHA antihydrogen | live | H̄ = H at ppb — no antimatter-specific correction exists (P1890) |
| 27 | JWST/Roman/Euclid 40-lens | 2028+ | H₀_local = 73.34 lens-model-independent (P1883/P1891); Gaia DR4 + JWST TRGB −4.05 co-guard |
| 28 | LIGO O5 next BNS kilonova | 2027+ | red peak = (K_Mex−2)·A_5 = 5 d; M_ej = 0.057 M_☉ (P1886) |
| 29 | ν=5/2 shot noise | 2027+ | e*/e = 1/D_phys = 1/4 (P1885); Ising-anyon interferometry co-guard |
| 30 | THz folding / AlphaFold | 2026+ | landscape exponent = K_Mex = 2.083 (P1889) |

Standing additions without new programs: YMC 10/3 universality (Arches/Quintuplet, P1909),
f_Z = 0.73 over-massive falsifier (P1895), no-axion ADMX/HAYSTAC null co-guard (P1888 joins P1823).

Register: **30 programs, 56 guarded members.** All prior properties (family-aware scoring,
mutual exposure, A4 hardening) apply unchanged. Process note: this extension lagged three bands
behind its members' wiring — per the PAPER_2165 lag lesson, future bands extend the register in
the same band that wires a new dated prediction.
