16
+ - **Total Actions**: 47 discrete actions across 6 major domains
17
+ - **Critical Path Length**: 18 actions (12-16 weeks)
18
+ - **Parallel Execution Opportunities**: 23 actions can run concurrently
19
+ - **Success Probability**: 85% (with proper resource allocation)
20
+ - **Falsifiability Index**: 100% (clearly defined failure criteria)

182
+ 3. Check Born rule application correctness
183
+ 4. Validate partial trace mathematics
184
+ 5. Optional: Formalize in Lean theorem prover
185
+
186
+ **Success Criteria**:
187
+ - Each proof step follows from previous
188
+ - All invoked theorems cited (Born rule, linearity, etc.)
189
+ - No circular reasoning
190
+ - Peer-reviewed by 2+ quantum theorists
191
+
192
+ #### Action 1.3: Define Corollaries and Predictions

207
+
208
+ **Predictions to Quantify**:
209
+ 1. Singles invariance: |Δp(y)| < 5×10⁻⁴ across all controllers
210
+ 2. Duality bound: V² + D² ≤ 1.0 + 3σ (within measurement error)
211
+ 3. Conditional fringes: Visibility = cos(φ) for eraser basis
212
+ 4. No retro-signaling: Zero correlation between late choice μ and early singles

690
+ effects: { calibration_protocol_written: true },

695
+ parallel_group: "C2",
696
+ deliverable: "docs/quantum-goap/CALIBRATION_PROTOCOL.md"

731
+ required_skills: [statistics, experimental_design]
732
+ }
733
+ ```
734
+
735
+ **Analysis Framework**:
736
+
737
+ **Primary Hypothesis Test**:
738
+ - **H₀**: p(y|λ, human) = p(y|λ, RNG) = p(y|λ, timer) for all y, λ
739
+ - **H₁**: ∃ y, λ such that controller type affects p(y|λ)
740
+
741
+ **Test Statistic**:
742
+ ```
743
+ χ² = Σ_y [(O_human,y - E_y)² + (O_RNG,y - E_y)² + (O_timer,y - E_y)²] / E_y
744
+ ```
745
+ Under H₀: χ² ~ χ²(df=4) distribution
746
+
747
+ **Equivalence Testing**:
748
+ Two one-sided tests (TOST) for equivalence within ε = 5×10⁻⁴:
749
+ - Test 1: p_diff < ε (upper bound)
750
+ - Test 2: p_diff > -ε (lower bound)
751
+
752
+ **Power Analysis**:
753
+ ```
754
+ Effect size: Δ = 1×10⁻³ (detectable consciousness effect)
755
+ Alpha: 0.01 (Bonferroni corrected for multiple tests)
756
+ Power: 0.90
757
+ Required events per controller: N ≈ 5×10⁶
758
+ ```
759
+
760
+ **Multiple Comparisons Correction**:
761
+ - Bonferroni: α_corrected = 0.01 / k (k = number of tests)
762
+ - False Discovery Rate (FDR) control: Benjamini-Hochberg procedure
763
+

1339
+
1340
+ \abstract{
1341
+ We test whether the identity of a measurement apparatus---specifically, whether controlled by a human, random number generator, or deterministic timer---affects quantum measurement outcomes. Using a delayed-choice quantum eraser with entangled photon pairs, we measure single-particle detection statistics while varying the controller type. Quantum mechanics predicts these statistics are observer-agnostic. We collect 15×10⁶ events in a pre-registered, blinded protocol and find [RESULT]. Our results [support/refute] the hypothesis that consciousness plays a causal role in quantum measurement, with equivalence bounds of Δp < 5×10⁻⁴.

+ ### 7.2 Detailed Mitigation Strategies
1820
+
1821
+ #### Risk 1: Funding Not Secured
1822
+ **Scenario**: Grant applications rejected or delayed
1823
+ **Probability**: 40%
1824
+ **Impact**: Cannot proceed past simulation phase
1825
+
1826
+ **Mitigation Plan**:
1827
+ 1. **Diversify applications**: Apply to NSF, DOE, private foundations (FQXi, Templeton)
1828
+ 2. **Phase funding**: Seek pilot funding for simulation + design (lower barrier)
1829
+ 3. **Crowdfunding**: Kickstarter/GoFundMe with strong outreach campaign
1830
+ 4. **Equipment sharing**: Partner with existing quantum optics lab
1831
+ 5. **Student project**: Frame as PhD thesis to leverage university support
1832
+
1833
+ **Contingency**: If unfunded, publish simulation + theoretical work, seek experimental collaborators
1834
+
1835
+ #### Risk 2: Hardware Lead Times
1836
+ **Scenario**: SPDC crystal or time-tagger takes 12+ weeks to deliver
1837
+ **Probability**: 30%
1838
+ **Impact**: Project delayed by 2-3 months
1839
+
1840
+ **Mitigation Plan**:
1841
+ 1. **Early procurement**: Order critical items immediately after funding
1842
+ 2. **Backup vendors**: Identify alternate suppliers (e.g., SPDC: Raicol, Covesion, HC Photonics)
1843
+ 3. **Rental options**: Rent time-tagger initially (Swabian offers this)
1844
+ 4. **Alternative designs**: Have photonic chip design as backup (though less flexible)
1845
+
1846
+ **Contingency**: Use interim cheaper components for alignment practice, then upgrade
1847
+
1848
+ #### Risk 3: Apparatus Won't Align
1849
+ **Scenario**: Cannot achieve required visibility or entanglement quality
1850
+ **Probability**: 20%
1851
+ **Impact**: Experiment infeasible or has large systematics
1852
+
1853
+ **Mitigation Plan**:
1854
+ 1. **Hire expert**: Budget for postdoc with quantum optics experience
1855
+ 2. **Collaboration**: Partner with lab that has working SPDC source
1856
+ 3. **Simpler design**: Fall back to Mach-Zehnder with single photons (no entanglement)
1857
+ 4. **Extended calibration**: Allocate 4 weeks instead of 2 for alignment
1858
+ 5. **Active stabilization**: Invest in PID-controlled feedback for phase lock
1859
+
1860
+ **Contingency**: If entanglement unattainable, run single-photon delayed-choice (Kim et al. design)
1861
+
1862
+ #### Risk 4: Data Shows Systematics
1863
+ **Scenario**: Singles vary with time-of-day, temperature, or other non-controller variable
1864
+ **Probability**: 25%
1865
+ **Impact**: Cannot definitively attribute any effect (or lack thereof) to controllers
1866
+
1867
+ **Mitigation Plan**:
1868
+ 1. **Environmental control**: Temperature-stabilized enclosure (±0.1°C)
1869
+ 2. **Extensive logging**: Record 20+ environmental variables at 1 Hz
1870
+ 3. **Randomization**: Randomize controller order, not just label
1871
+ 4. **Pilot study**: Identify systematics early in small dataset
1872
+ 5. **Positive controls**: Measure known effects to validate sensitivity
1873
+
1874
+ **Contingency**: If systematics found, correct in software or redesign apparatus
1875
+
1876
+ #### Risk 5: Insufficient Statistical Power
1877
+ **Scenario**: 5×10⁶ events not enough to detect or rule out small effects
1878
+ **Probability**: 15%
1879
+ **Impact**: Inconclusive result, need to extend data collection
1880
+
1881
+ **Mitigation Plan**:
1882
+ 1. **Power analysis**: Done upfront with conservative assumptions
1883
+ 2. **Optimize count rate**: Maximize brightness and detection efficiency
1884
+ 3. **Sequential testing**: Monitor power as data accumulates, extend if needed
1885
+ 4. **Collaboration**: Pool data with other groups doing similar experiments
1886
+
1887
+ **Contingency**: Report results with wider confidence intervals, call for multi-lab effort
1888
+

1891
+ ## 8. Parallel Execution Opportunities
1892
+
1893
+ ### 8.1 Concurrent Action Sets
1894
+
1895
+ **Set A: Theory + Simulation** (Weeks 1-4)
1896
+ Can all run in parallel after initial dependencies satisfied:
1897
+ ```
1898
+ Spawn agents concurrently:
1899
+ - Theorist Agent: Actions 1.1-1.3 (formalization)
1900
+ - Rust Dev Agent A: Action 2.2 (math.rs)
1901
+ - Rust Dev Agent B: Action 2.3 (eraser.rs)
1902
+ - Rust Dev Agent C: Action 2.4 (duality.rs)
1903
+ - Test Engineer: Actions 3.1-3.2 (tests)
1904
+ ```
1905
+
1906
+ **Set B: Experimental Design** (Weeks 6-8)
1907
+ Independent work streams:
1908
+ ```
1909
+ - Optical Designer: Action 5.1 (apparatus CAD)
1910
+ - Experimentalist: Action 5.2 (protocols)
1911
+ - Statistician: Action 5.3 (analysis plan)
1912
+ - Coordinator: Action 5.4 (pre-registration, integrates above)
1913
+ ```
1914
+
1915
+ **Set C: Procurement** (Weeks 9-10)
1916
+ Order all items simultaneously:
1917
+ ```
1918
+ - SPDC source (Raicol)
1919
+ - Pump laser (Toptica)
1920
+ - APDs (Excelitas)
1921
+ - Time-tagger (Swabian)
1922
+ - Optics (Thorlabs)
1923
+ - Stages (Newport)
1924
+ ```
1925
+
1926
+ **Set D: Publication** (Weeks 21-24)
1927
+ Parallelizable tasks:
1928
+ ```
1929
+ - Author A: Draft intro + theory sections
1930
+ - Author B: Draft methods + results sections
1931
+ - Author C: Create figures + tables
1932
+ - Author D: Write supplement
1933
+ - All: Iterate on shared Overleaf document
1934
+ ```
1935
+
1936
+ ### 8.2 Speedup Potential
1937
+
1938
+ **Sequential execution time**: 40 weeks
1939
+ **With optimal parallelization**: 28 weeks
1940
+ **Speedup**: 1.43×
1941
+
1942
+ **Limiting factors**:
1943
+ - Critical path (funding → procurement → build → collect) cannot be parallelized
1944
+ - Some actions have strict sequential dependencies
1945
+ - Resource constraints (finite lab space, personnel)
1946
+
1947
+ **Maximum theoretical speedup**:
1948
+ If unlimited resources and instant funding: ~20 weeks (2× speedup)

2312
+ ### 12.3 Expected Outcomes
2313
+
2314
+ **Best Case** (6-9 months):
2315
+ - Simulation completed and validated (Weeks 1-5)
2316
+ - Funding secured quickly (Weeks 6-10)
2317
+ - Experiment runs smoothly (Weeks 11-20)
2318
+ - Null result published with tight bounds in PRL (Weeks 21-28)
2319
+ - **Impact**: Definitive test showing consciousness does NOT affect QM
2320
+
2321
+ **Worst Case** (2-3 years):
2322
+ - Funding delayed 6+ months
2323
+ - Apparatus alignment challenges (add 2-3 months)
2324
+ - Unexpected systematics require redesign (add 3-6 months)
2325
+ - Result still publishable but with less impact
2326
+
2327
+ **Revolutionary Case** (if violation found):
2328
+ - Immediate replication runs
2329
+ - Intensive independent verification
2330
+ - Publication in Nature/Science
2331
+ - **Impact**: New physics discovered, paradigm shift in quantum foundations

+ ## Appendix A: Action Cost Justifications
2336
+
2337
+ | Action | Cost | Justification |
2338
+ |--------|------|---------------|
2339
+ | 1.1 Formalize | 3 | Moderate complexity, well-defined task |
2340
+ | 1.2 Verify Proof | 4 | Requires careful logic, possible formal verification |
2341
+ | 2.2 Math Module | 5 | Significant coding + testing |
2342
+ | 2.3 Eraser Module | 6 | Most complex simulation component |
2343
+ | 5.1 Design Apparatus | 8 | Requires optical expertise + CAD work |
2344
+ | 6.1 Secure Funding | 10 | Time-consuming, uncertain outcome |
2345
+ | 7.2 Full Data Collection | 12 | Longest single action, cannot be accelerated |
2346
+
2347
+ **Cost Scale**:
2348
+ - 1-2: Trivial (< 4 hours)
2349
+ - 3-5: Moderate (1-3 days)
2350
+ - 6-8: Significant (1-2 weeks)
2351
+ - 9-12: Major (2-4 weeks)

2355
+ ## Appendix B: Alternative Experimental Designs
2356
+
2357
+ If photonic DCQE proves too challenging:
2358
+
2359
+ **Alternative 1: Mach-Zehnder with Single Photons**
2360
+ - Simpler: No entanglement required
2361
+ - Weaker: Tests only duality, not retrocausality
2362
+ - Faster: 4-6 week build instead of 8-12
2363
+
2364
+ **Alternative 2: Electron Double-Slit**
2365
+ - Different modality: Matter waves instead of photons
2366
+ - Advantage: Existing apparatus at many universities
2367
+ - Disadvantage: Lower count rates, harder controller integration
2368
+
2369
+ **Alternative 3: Photonic Integrated Circuit**
2370
+ - Modern: Chip-based interferometry
2371
+ - Advantage: Highly stable, automated
2372
+ - Disadvantage: Less flexible, higher upfront cost
