Electron EDM in QMU: CP-odd Square-Charge Dipole from Aether-Unit Holonomy This paper reformulates the electron "EDM" observable in the Aether Physics Model (APM) using Quantum Measurement Units (QMU), where the primitive charge dimension is square-charge and electrostatic potential is reciprocal capacitance. In this framework, the natural EDM-like observable is not a linear-charge dipole \ (dₑ\), but a CP-odd square-charge first moment of a distributed square-charge density. QMU potential and driver. Electrostatic potential is defined as reciprocal capacitance, \Q: = 1C, the electrostatic driver is its gradient,: = Q. \ Square-charge EDM observable and ledger-closed coupling. Let \ (₄ℂ (r) \) be the signed distributed square-charge density (magnetic basis). The square-charge dipole vector is the first moment₄ℂ: = ₄ℂ (r) \, r\, d³r. ledger-closed interaction energy with external electrostatic structure is\ U = -\, D₄ℂQ, replaces the legacy coupling \ (- d E\) by changing the driver to \ (Q\) and the dipole to a square-charge moment. Holonomy origin and CP-odd invariant. The Aether-unit two-sphere chronovibration supports a 5D closed action whose 4D forward-time projection can exhibit holonomy. A CP-odd defect one-form \ (₂\) is defined from the 5D-to-4D connection mismatch, and the dimensionless CP-holonomy invariant is\₂: = 12_+₂, \ (_+\) is the forward-time leg of the chronovibrational cycle. The square-charge dipole is parameterized by₄ℂ = eₑmax^2\, C\, ₂\, s, \ (eₑmax^2\) the distributed square-charge unit in the magnetic basis, \ (C\) the electron Compton length, and \ (s\) the spin direction. Domain taxonomy, seams, and obstruction index. A minimal octant-domain cover of the electron sheet is introduced, with antipodal pairing and a loxodromic seam-crossing loop. Under a local-exactness hypothesis on each octant, the CP-odd holonomy reduces to a seam-sum cocycle. Quantized seam jumps are written as multiples of the octant increment \ (/4\), producing an integer obstruction index \ (₂ Z\) and a discrete spectrum\₂ = ^p\, ₂8, \ (\) is the fine structure constant and \ (p 1\) is the leading order at which the CP-odd defect survives seam pairing. Metrology and experimental bridge. An action scale is defined in QMU asₑ: = mₑ\, C^2\, Fq, the measurable frequency shift is \ (f= U/hₑ\). In EDM platforms, the relevant driver is the internal reciprocal-capacitance gradient component₄₅₅: = nQ, to a spin-reversal splitting proportional to \ (|₂|\, |G₄₅₅|\). State-of-the-art null bounds from electron-EDM experiments (e. g. ACME) are interpreted here as constraints on admissible microstate classes and packing-weighted populations rather than on an intrinsic point-parameter. Next-step program and parameter-free prediction target. With canonical octant labeling and the loxodromic seam loop fixed, Milestone M1 is to compute the leading CP-odd chirality connection \ (^ (1) _\) and the associated seam integers \ (m₈₉\), and to determine whether \ (p=1\) (non-canceling order-\ (\) seam cocycle) or \ (p 2\) (order-\ (\) cancellation). If the explicit summation yields \ (p=1\) and the minimal obstruction \ (₂=1\), then the framework makes a parameter-free magnitude prediction in native QMU units: \|D₄ℂ| = eₑmax^2\, C\, 8. appendix-only SI-bridge purposes, the charge-basis relation^2 = 8\, eₑmax^2 the square-charge unit to the elementary-charge-squared scale used in legacy reporting.
