Key Points

The research aims to explain the life cycle of pulsars using geometric-mechanical principles and to resolve anomalies in the braking index.
Analyzed rotational gradients and nutational dynamics from previous studies.
Introduced a fluidic spacetime-carcass model to replace the rigid crust model.
Examined wave-phase synchronization to explain extreme radio luminosities.
Established criteria for falsification of the proposed theory.
Resolved braking index anomaly (n < 3) within the new model.
Provided a coherent explanation for extreme radio luminosities via wave-phase synchronization.
Defined the 'Observer Horizon' through redshift profiles, anchoring the theory in testable physics.

Abstract

AbstractThis paper completes the causal triad of the Time-Density Invari-ant theory. Building upon the rotational gradients derived in DOI:10.5281/zenodo.19444321 and the nutational dynamics established inDOI: 10.5281/zenodo.19461757, we here demonstrate that the life cy-cle of a pulsar is governed by a pure geometric-mechanical equilibrium.By discarding the traditional "rigid crust" model in favor of a fluidicspacetime-carcass, we resolve the braking index anomaly (n < 3) andprovide a coherent explanation for extreme radio luminosities throughwave-phase synchronization. Finally, we establish the "Observer Hori-zon" through gravitational redshift profiles and define explicit falsifi-cation criteria, anchoring the theory in the domain of testable physics.
