Prediction	Various (E_8-derived)
Measured	PDG
Residual	1.4–11.6%
Status	soft

Mechanism

PMNS mixing follows from the (27, 3) branching of E_8 → E_6 × SU(3) on the McKay 2I → E_8 chain. Per-angle residuals catalogued in DCT-SM-01.

Derivation

PMNS mixing follows from the (27, 3) branching of E_8 → E_6 × SU(3) on the McKay 2I → E_8 chain. Per-angle residuals catalogued in DCT-SM-01.

The closed-form prediction is

$$ \text{predicted} = Various (E_8-derived) $$

against the measurement PDG, giving residual 1.4–11.6%.

Python verification

The verification script for this observable is particle_physics_tests.py. Run it with python3 particle_physics_tests.py to reproduce the canonical DCT result against the public-archive measurement source listed above (PDG 2024.).

Methodology

Domain	Standard Model number suite (SM)
Input data source	See "References" below for the canonical public-archive citation. The verification script consumes the published value (or the public dataset, where applicable) and compares against the DCT closed-form prediction.
Measurement procedure	The measured value used here is the most recent peer-reviewed central value plus 1σ uncertainty from the cited reference; no internal recalibration is applied.
Acceptance threshold	HIT: residual within 1σ of measurement. SOFT: directional agreement, residual within bracketing range. OPEN: untested or unresolved.
Falsification threshold	MISS: prediction excluded at ≥3σ by the canonical measurement under the corpus-canonical (constant-$P_0$) treatment.
Current status	See the verdict pill in the prediction table above.

Audit notes

Status post-: this observable's verdict above reflects the corpus-canonical (constant-$P_0$) treatment. Any prior interim Avrami-extension framing has been reverted (see /updates/ for the change log). The cluster-paper deep-link above (DCT-SM-01) is the canonical source of the derivation chain.
