E8 Phi-Comb Quantum Reference for Detecting Planck-Scale Temporal Fluctuations — E8 Intelligence Research

Open access0 citations

Abstract

By assigning each of the 240 E8 root vectors a φ‑scaled harmonic of the 132 Hz base frequency, the lattice forms a frequency comb with 360 discrete phase steps per cycle. The entanglement bridges between vectors lock these phases into a coherent, ultra‑stable reference across the 12 groups of 20 vectors. Any perturbation of spacetime—such as a stochastic gravitational‑wave background or a variation of the fine‑structure constant—induces correlated phase shifts that can be extracted by cross‑correlating the groups, providing a new probe of Planck‑scale temporal fluctuations.
