Dedicated deep-dive site
A standalone site is published for this domain at gravitational-waves.senuamedia.com — with the per-instance results, walkthroughs, and downloadable data behind every reading on this page.
Same framework, applied to Gravitational Waves
The framework's value lies in its universality across disparate domains. The brake operator \(\mathcal{B}\), dispersion \(\mathcal{S}\), consensus \(\mathcal{M}\), spectral primitive \(\mathcal{P}\), anti-shadow detector \(\mathfrak{A}\), and scope-reporter \(\mathscr{A}\) — together with Theorems 1–13 — are applied here exactly as on every other domain. Source code: github.com/senuamedia/uniformity. No per-domain calibration. No imported threshold. No bespoke fit.
Cross-domain catalogue — \(\beta\)-strip
Every brake-exponent reading across every domain. The same operator \(\mathcal{B}\) produced every point. This domain's points are highlighted; the rest of the catalogue is visible for cross-domain context.

What the framework provides for gravitational-wave astronomy
LIGO and NANOGrav rely on highly engineered domain-specific pipelines: matched-filter banks for compact-binary coalescences, Bayesian power-law fits with Hellings–Downs correlations for the nanohertz stochastic background. The framework provides cross-detector consensus on local brake exponents and PELT change-point timing, with no waveform template, no parametric model, and no domain-specific threshold — an independent corroboration channel grounded in a fundamentally different statistic.
Headline results
Three catalogue instances
- Instance 3 — Binary BH mergers. LIGO GW150914 @ +23.6σ combined (37 ms time error); GW151226 @ +3.7σ (25 ms) via cross-detector consensus.
- Instance 8 — NANOGrav nanohertz GWB. 15-yr Bayesian free-spectrum gives \(\gamma = 4.11 \pm 0.39\) — within 1σ of SMBH-binary regime (13/3 ≈ 4.33); cosmic strings (γ ≈ 2), primordial (γ ≈ 5), phase transition (γ ≈ 7) excluded at > 2σ.
- Instance 9 — LIGO O3 sub-threshold discrimination. GW190521 → consensus_signal (+5.76σ); GW190426_190642 → consensus_noise (matches LIGO collaboration's own demotion in GWTC-2.1); pre-event noise controls → consensus_noise.

Framework reading
Theorem 2 binding: shadow consensus concentrates the signal where MAX would not. The framework's derivative-consensus, with no template matching and no priors, reaches the same demotion call as the LIGO production pipeline on GW190426 — independent corroboration via a fundamentally different statistic. NANOGrav's \(\gamma = 4.11 \pm 0.39\) lands the framework cleanly in the SMBH-binary regime with no PTA-domain machinery. Law V binding: matched filtering remains optimal for signal recovery; the framework adds a parallel template-free channel.
