📡 Harmonic Entropy Prediction in GW230529 (Pre-O4 Validated)

Data Analysis

Author: Jason Mercer

Prediction DOI: 10.5281/zenodo.14825124

Analysis Data: L1 posterior + strain from GW230529

Framework: BSD-TTPP (Baryonic Structured Drift – Transcendent Periodicity Principle)

:pushpin: Summary

Prior to O4’s release, I published a prediction that certain high-SNR gravitational wave events would display:

  • Sliding-window entropy drift
  • Harmonic folding near base-7 moduli (e.g., modulo 5040)
  • Oscillatory structures traceable to modular resonance signatures

Using the released L1 posterior samples and L1 strain data from GW230529_181500, I tested the prediction and found alignment in all three categories — consistent with BSD-TTPP expectations.

This was not a retroactive curve fit; the prediction is timestamped and public.

:magnifying_glass_tilted_left: What Was Found

  • Entropy oscillations in the PSD consistent with modular drift
  • A TTPP-based harmonic overlay phase-aligned with the waveform
  • Modular folding near 5040 scaling in disruption entropy

:handshake: Invitation

I share this for transparency and with an open invitation to validate, critique, or extend this work. The methods are reproducible using public data and open tools (Python, SciPy, NumPy, entropy windowing).

If this is of interest to any group within LIGO/Virgo/KAGRA, I would be glad to engage.
