A Habitat Information Physics Rewriting of the Mass-Source Ontology of Gravitation

This study reconstructs the measurement and generation interpretation of Solar-System orbital constraint parameters within Habitat Information Physics (HIP). Celestial positions, times, Doppler shifts, phases, and ranges are first registered through optical or radio signals and are then fitted by orbital dynamics to state vectors, semimajor axes, and periods. The analysis therefore separates object state, propagating signal, instrument record, model-derived observable, and ontological interpretation. For a circularized low-order record it defines K₀=n²a³= (na) ²a, whereas a general time slice retains v²=μ (2/r−1/a) and v=vᵣ r̂+vₜ θ̂. This removes the erroneous unconditional use of K=v²r for noncircular states. The standard path labels the low-order combination GM and obtains M=K/G; HIP retains the successful numerical record but interprets it as a constraint generated jointly by core and orbital constructs, their boundaries, and the external habitat. A recalculation with NASA/JPL approximate planetary elements gives K₀≈1. 327×10²⁰ m³ s⁻² for all eight planets. The appropriate low-order benchmark is GM☉+GMᵢ, not GM☉ alone. Most of the Jupiter and Saturn offset from the solar parameter is accounted for by the planet-system contribution, whereas the Uranus and Neptune differences confirm that approximate elements are unsuitable for residual tests. Using the IAU 2015 nominal solar radius R☉=6. 957×10⁸ m gives V☉=1. 4104400×10²⁷ m³ and χH, cal=K☉/V☉=9. 40929×10⁻⁸ s⁻². Because χH, cal=Gρ̄☉ algebraically, this calibration adds no independent information. A competitive prediction requires χH, pred and FB to be fixed from inputs that exclude the target GM, M, and G. A minimal weak-field, nonrelativistic, mass-free-input dynamics is then formulated. Each bounded construct is assigned Kᵢ=χᵢVᵢFᵢ; a symmetric boundary coupling Cᵢj gives Kₚair, ij= (Kᵢ+Kⱼ) (1+Cᵢj). The two-body relative equation is r̈ᵢj=−Kₚair, ij rᵢj/rᵢj³, and the N-body candidate uses only K variables, positions, velocities, time, and registered boundary terms. Introducing a positive reference scale K_* and wᵢ=Kᵢ/K_* yields a specific-action-type Lagrangian, a K-weighted constraint center, a rotational quantity, and a specific-energy ledger. They are conserved for frozen Kᵢ and Cᵢj with no external-habitat acceleration; open-habitat evolution enters explicitly through K̇ᵢ, Ċᵢj, and aEH, i rather than through an unconstrained correction. Numerically, the eight DE440-based standard pair values and their differences from approximate-element K₀ are reported explicitly. The apparent Cₐpp spans −59. 115 to +1203. 468 ppm and is an inter-source precision difference, not a measured HIP coupling. For Mercury, the Earth–Moon system, and Jupiter, the circularized relative accelerations are 3. 95746×10⁻², 5. 93007×10⁻³, and 2. 19274×10⁻⁴ m s⁻²; the velocities are 47. 8721, 29. 7847, and 13. 0641 km s⁻¹; and the solar-side K-weighted displacements are 9. 614, 454. 842, and 742445 km. The specific kinetic, pair-potential, and total specific energies close in m² s⁻² without kilograms. These are E3/E4 consistency reconstructions because the Kᵢ values still come from standard ephemerides. A more independent cross-layer test uses only planetary-satellite mean semimajor axes and sidereal periods on the calculation side: Kₚair, sat^ (geo) =4π²aₛat³/Tₛat². Relative to JPL standard planet-plus-satellite parameters, Deimos, Callisto, Titan, Ariel, and Triton differ by −102. 9, −34. 6, +152. 8, +80. 9, and +315. 4 ppm. Inner, resonant, strongly nonspherical, or ring-affected cases reach 10³–10⁴ ppm. The result confines the low-order HIP expression to windows with a clear core construct, central constraint dominance, and weak local disturbance; it does not establish a new field. Osculating ellipses are treated as epoch-dependent geometric encodings, not material tracks, and axial projection, heliospheric boundaries, and near-Sun envelopes remain candidate indices. The paper concludes with standard-model residual construction, spatial mapping, and preregistered blind-prediction criteria.
