Derivation of wavefunction collapse time in quantum superposition shows new insights in fundamental physics.

The aim is to derive the objective wavefunction collapse time for massive spatial superpositions using the Universal Processing Law.
Derived the collapse time from first principles without using continuous time or classical Hamiltonians.
Examined the hardware mechanism that necessitates rendering contradictory gravitational fields.
Calculated critical thresholds for computational action leading to wavefunction collapse.
The collapse time formula was found to be τ = ℏ/(8πE_G).
Predicted collapse time for a silica microsphere (10^-14 kg) is approximately 7 days.
Predicted collapse time for a tungsten microsphere (10^-12 kg) is approximately 0.63 seconds.
