01Curated paper record

Thirteen DOI-linked research papers

This page deliberately lists research papers. All thirteen entries below are publicly available preprints; none is presented here as a peer-reviewed publication. Journal status, where relevant, is kept separate from this public register. The Zenodo Community also contains book, guide and methodology records, so its total record count is higher.

Structural Preconditions of Physical Description: A Logical–Structural Analysis of the Conditions of Applicability of Physics

Seven structural preconditions for physical description and the foundation of the programme.

Concept DOI ↗

Levels of Description and the Burden of Crossing Them: A Functional-Logical Account of Transitions in Physical Explanation

Claim-relative roles, nine routes, transition profiles, and the Bridge Burden / Discharge / Debt architecture.

Concept DOI ↗

When Physical Applicability Fails: A Token-Level Verdict Protocol for Physical Claims

A token-level verdict protocol for physical claims. It freezes a versioned claim, adjudicates token satisfaction, filters applicability-relevant deficits, and records a time-indexed PASS / OPEN / Loss of Applicability verdict.

Concept DOI ↗

When AI “Discovers” Physics: An Applicability-Diagnostic Verdict Protocol for AI-Based Physical Claims

A verdict protocol for AI-based physical discovery claims.

DOI ↗

When Interpretations Fail the Test: A Diagnostic Protocol for Claims about the Quantum Measurement Problem

Applicability diagnostics for interpretations of quantum mechanics.

DOI ↗

When Physics Demands Its Own Beginning: The Initial-Conditions Regress and the Limits of Presuppositionless Explanation in Cosmology

The initial-conditions regress and the limits of presuppositionless explanation.

DOI ↗

What Origin Strategies Cannot Avoid: A Diagnostic Protocol and Constraint Map for Cosmological Origin Claims

A constraint map across cosmological origin strategies.

DOI ↗

The Finality Demand in Fundamental Physics: A Self-Applicability Diagnostic of ‘Final Theory’ and Unification Claims

Self-applicability and the diagnostic limits of final-theory claims.

DOI ↗

Applicability Diagnostics in Fundamental Physics: A Functional Necessity Argument and a Fourteen-Case Calibration

Introduces the Functional Incompleteness Argument (FIA): complete, auditable claim-level applicability diagnosis requires recoverable requirement, transition-warrant and token-satisfaction information, none recoverable from the other two. P1 → P2 → P3 is one concrete realisation; the separate fourteen-case study calibrates S1–S7.

Concept DOI ↗

A Validation-Licensing Audit of GR+ΛCDM in the Cosmological Regime

A regime-sensitive audit of the standard cosmological model.

DOI ↗

From Fit to Attribution: Tracing the Provenance of Component Support in Cosmology

A pipeline-level audit of where component-level support enters cosmological inference, separating evidential strength from attributional force.

DOI ↗

The Prephysical Turn: Why Fundamental Physics Requires a Licensing Discipline

Why fundamental physics requires a licensing discipline.

DOI ↗

Ruling Out Entirely? Modal Compression and Selective Scope Rendering in the Galactic Centre Excess Debate

A modal-audit case study comparing body-level warrant, citable-surface scope, revision history and a frozen ADS–INSPIRE reception corpus.
