QAT v1: Quantum Abiogenetic Transduction — Coherence-Driven Origin of Life QAT proposes that abiogenesis required a coherent electromagnetic field, not chemistry alone. The key driver is a ∼2.25 MHz environmental resonance (the natural 1–3 MHz lightning-generated MF band) phase-locked to an ∼8–11 Hz ELF envelope. Today this corresponds to the Schumann fundamental (7.83 Hz); on the early Earth, a lower ionosphere predicts a proto-cavity at 9–12 Hz. In a shielded, low-noise environment, this coupled field is predicted to extend quantum coherence in water and proto-filaments, enabling tunneling-driven polymerization. Standard laboratory conditions (60 Hz power-line fields, 2.4/5 GHz RF) actively decohere these states, explaining why prebiotic chemistry stalls at short oligomers. Testable prediction: in a double-shielded chamber with 2.25 MHz + 7.83 Hz AM (and 9–12 Hz secondary test), a Sutherland-type mix should produce RNA >20-mers at 5–10× control rates, with expanded Pollack EZ domains (>100 µm) and measurable L-amino acid bias (>55%). In silico modeling supports both modern and proto-Earth frequencies. Edit:Water pressure considered in the second experiment protocol. ( Named QATtest2.pdf) License: CC-BY-4.0
