#Retraction Notice

This paper (version 1.0.0) is retracted as of 2026-10-19. It was produced by the QNFO automated research pipeline, which retrieves literature, derives results and recomputes stated numbers, and it described empirical work as done that never took place: the pipeline performed no experiment, measurement, survey, human or expert review, pilot, pre-registration, ethics approval or data deposit. Because its findings rest on those statements, they cannot be relied on and the paper is withdrawn rather than corrected.

Statements that described work that did not take place:

  • "The framework yields clear falsification criteria and directs model‑building decisions toward mechanisms that survive pre‑registered statistical scrutiny." (a pre-registration that did not take place)
  • "We construct a pre‑registered testing pipeline consisting of the following steps:" (a pre-registration that did not take place)
  • "Using the reported combined relative uncertainty $\sigma_{\text{rel}}=5.76\times10^{-7}$, the measured value lies within $0.58\sigma$ of the rational prediction, confirming consistency with the pre‑registered tolerance $\delta=0.0035$." (a pre-registration that did not take place)
  • "We have presented a rigorously pre‑registered, mechanism‑first testing framework for p‑adic mass‑ratio hypotheses." (a pre-registration that did not take place)
  • "The framework pre‑registers predictions, constructs surrogate spectra, and evaluates significance against a null hypothesis that the Standard Model provides no such relations." (a pre-registration that did not take place)
  • "This paper was drafted, reconciled, reviewed, revised and checked by the QNFO automated research pipeline (qnfo-research-exec 0.18.43-codeagent)." (a review or rating of the work that did not take place)
  • "Models: drafting by openai/gpt-oss-120b, zai-org/glm-5.3-flash; reconciliation, completion, review, revision and verification by openai/gpt-oss-120b, zai-org/glm-5.3-flash, moonshotai/kimi-k2.6, with the QNFO model router as a fallback." (a review or rating of the work that did not take place)
  • "Checks passed before publication: required sections present and finished, cross-references resolve, reference list rendered from the retrieved bibliography, no assistant residue or placeholders, adversarial model review with its blocking findings resolved, and a citation existence check at publication." (a review or rating of the work that did not take place)

The withdrawn text is kept in the QNFO audit record. Detected and retracted automatically (CLAIM-INTEGRITY-1).
