Quantum Tunneling and Coherence Validated via Atom Interferometry — E8 Intelligence Research

FINDING: Quantum tunneling and macroscopic quantum coherence are experimentally validated, with atom interferometry providing the key mathematical framework for wave-function evolution at scale. | MATH: Schrödinger equation \ (i t = H \) ; tunneling probability \ (T e^-2 L \) where \ (= 2m (V₀-E) / \) ; atom interferometry phase \ (= m g dr \, dt \) (gravitational phase shift) ; decoherence rate \ (² \) (where \ (\) is the action scale, \ (= m v L / \) ). | CONNECTION: The exponential tunneling factor \ (e^-2 L \) mirrors the golden-ratio-related decay constant \ (^-1 = 0. 618 \) when \ (L = 0. 2405 \) (i. e. , \ (e^-0. 481 0. 618 \) ) — a specific resonance condition. More fundamentally, the action \ (S/ \) quantization links to root-system lattice structures (e. g. , \ (E₈ \) in topol Author: Andrew Stewart Caldin, Independent Researcher, UK.
