Electron g-2 Closure from Aether-Unit Holonomy in QMU This record archives the manuscript and source files for a QMU-first (ledger-first) derivation program for the electron magnetic-moment anomaly\ (aₑ: = (gₑ-2) /2\), formulated as a dimensionless holonomy defect of Aether-unit geometry. Core hypothesis (holonomy identity). The anomaly is identified with a forward-time holonomy invariant on the electron chronovibrational path: ₑ = H, H: = 12_+,: = _+^ ₅ - _+^ ₄. \ (₅\) is an intrinsic 5D transport connection, \ (₄\) is its induced 4D projection, and \ (_+\) is the forward-time (4D-visible) leg of the chronovibrational cycle. The 5D ledger closes on the full cycle, while observation samples only \ (_+\), yielding a nonzero defect. Charge conversion entry point for \ (\) (CCF, square-charge basis). In QMU, \ (\) enters as a conversion weight between square-charge primitives, not as an SI coupling: ² = 8\, \, eₑmax². , the defect is treated as a conversion-controlled holonomy series\H () = c₁ + c₂² + c₃³ +, coefficients \ (cₖ\) determined by Aether-unit geometry, projection, and packing topology. Leading scale from one-wrap transport. A minimal explicit connection ansatz yields the observed leading scaleₑ 2 the forward-time loxodrome carries one azimuthal wrap. What is new here (explicit bridge term in Milestone M5). This version makes explicit that a finite-thickness cardioid-tube support for the CCF-induced U (1) twist contributes a multiplicative gate correction. Imposing the toroidal invariance constraint \ (Rr=C²\) (major radius \ (R\), minor radius \ (r\) ), the natural normalized tube-area scale is\ ( (2 R) (2 r) =4² (Rr) =4²C²\). The corresponding gate factor is written as the simplest nontrivial fractional-turn uplift: \₆₀ₓ₄: = 1+14². term is used as the explicit bridge that closes the diagnostic gap between an underlying rotation-sampling factor near \ (0. 257\) and the extracted \ (ₑ₎ₓ 0. 264\), via a factorization of the sampled defect into time-window sampling and tube-gating. Program structure (Milestones). The manuscript is intentionally a program paper: it defines the holonomy invariant, establishes ledger closure for the connection-level construction, and specifies a falsifiable pipeline (Milestones M1-M7) linking: (1) explicit connections \ ( (₅, ₄) \), (2) chronovibration restriction (forward-time sampling), (3) octant-domain taxonomy and seam spectrum, (4) integer wrap and obstruction indices, (5) CCF-induced U (1) connection with finite-thickness gating, (6) dimensionless closure tests against \ (gₑ\) and independent recoil \ (\), (7) a transfer principle to EDM and CLFV sectors using a shared holonomy kernel. Data comparison used in the draft. The numerical diagnostics use a high-precision Penning-trap electron magnetic moment measurement and independent atom-recoil determinations of \ (\) (Cs and Rb). All comparisons are performed in dimensionless form.
