Expanded claim page · assertion 1 of 3

the detector has two different jobs

Experiment / protocolBuilder

Defines a measurement, sensitivity calculation or empirical decision rule. constructs a model, mechanism, calculation, protocol or intervention.

Exact assertion

Certifying a useful one-percent reduced response and detecting the predicted per-mille second mode are different experiments. Across the sampled high-energy window, a three-sigma one-percent certificate permits about 0.279 percent combined one-sigma error. A three-sigma detection of the second mode requires less than 438 parts per million; equal theory and detector budgets receive about 310 parts per million each.

What this commits us to

The claim concerns a protocol, sensitivity or decision rule. It must be kept separate from a prediction that a nonzero signal exists.

Logical anatomy

Scope

Chapter “The admissibility frontier”, section “the detector has two different jobs”. This is assertion 1 of 3 in that section.

Evidence posture

Separate predicted signal from sensitivity, calibration and decision protocol.

Research move

constructs a model, mechanism, calculation, protocol or intervention.

Verification route

  1. Recover the declared objects and assumptions from the controlling documents.
  2. Check the calculation, construction, obstruction or stopping rule on those same objects.
  3. Compare the source conclusion with the exact assertion above; do not strengthen its verbs or enlarge its domain.
  4. Apply the status rule and retain every named external dependency.

What would move or defeat this claim

Specify the apparatus, calibration, null distribution, preregistered threshold and independently predicted effect size.
