Status note documents notation separation and structural challenges in RMB framework, indicating empirical fits are not limiting solutions.
This status note continues the scientific consolidation of the RMB (Space–Matter–Motion) framework initiated by the July 2026 Corrections Note (DOI: 10.5281/zenodo.21219761). It documents three results. First, the previously ambiguous coupling notation is formally separated: the dimensionless microscopic quantity α_QFT, the dimensionful tensor coupling κ_T ([κ_T] = m), and the phenomenological SPARC fit parameters (λ_gal, r₀, r_c) are distinct objects whose identification has not been derived. Second, the minimal RMB tensor M^μν = ρ₀c²v^μv^ν + κ_T F^μν can be written in a dimensionally homogeneous form but exhibits two structural no-go results in the weak-field, stationary, axisymmetric limit: (a) the temporal component of the balance law ∇_μM^μν = 0 modifies the standard matter continuity equation by a diffusion term and excludes stationary rotating discs with realistic density profiles for κ_T ≠ 0; and (b) the antisymmetric correction produces no radial force for a purely azimuthal flow and therefore cannot modify rotation curves in this limit. Third, a conservative stability estimate gives |κ_T| ≲ 3×10⁻¹⁷ m, whereas galactic relevance would require κ_T ∼ 10¹⁷ m — a discrepancy of ~34 orders of magnitude. Consequently, the empirically successful SPARC parametrisation is not a limiting solution of the minimal tensor equation and remains phenomenological. RMB currently has no coupling value transferable to laboratory, plasma, or accelerator systems; corresponding extrapolations (collider signatures, X17, plasma, solar-wind momentum balance) are classified as not yet calculationally well-defined. The note is Finding 6 of the July 2026 corrections series and remains a status clarification, not an invalidation of the empirical fits.
