Optical-Fiber Activation of Observer-Split Source Terms in a Rotating Aluminum Disc

Open access0 citations

Abstract

This manuscript develops an optical-fiber extension of the Observer-Split source framework for finite rotating systems. Starting from an observer-adapted rotating 3+1 decomposition, the work proposes replacing the magnetic source proxy used in rotating magnetic-system benchmarks, including the Roshchin-Godin configuration, with an evanescent/tunneling optical source carried by a rotating aluminum disc. The paper defines an optical source coordinate based on angular rotation, aluminum transduction geometry, evanescent optical coupling, and active-sector localization. It connects optical tunneling, extended Aharonov-Bohm scalar closure, ON/OFF optical gating, CW/CCW sign reversal, and dummy-control suppression into a falsifiable experimental protocol for investigating potential gravitational-control signatures in a simple rotating disc apparatus. A synthetic machine-learning consistency audit is included to test whether the proposed modeled signature is separable from null, thermal, vibrational, uniform-source, dummy-active, and wrong-sign control classes. The work is presented as a theoretical and experimental protocol; it does not report direct experimental weight-loss data. The related Python reproducibility code used to generate the analytical figures, source model, and synthetic consistency audit is archived separately on Zenodo at: https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.21781822
