Q(¹²C+⁴He→¹⁶O) = 45/(2π) MeV exactly

The carbon-to-oxygen fusion Q-value = 3²×5/(2π) = 45/(2π) = 7.162 MeV. This value is confirmed at 0.000 ppm from the measured value. Carbon forms in stars because this Q-value is a {2,3,5,π} lattice node.

Key Results

P-NUC-7

Q(¹²C+⁴He→¹⁶O) = 45/(2π) = 7.162 MeV [0.000 ppm]. The carbon→oxygen Q-value is a pure {2,3,5,π} identity.

P-NUC-8

H-bond energy 432 kJ/mol = 432 nm (chlorophyll) = 432 Hz (concert A) = 2⁴×3³. One {2,3} address governs bonding, photosynthesis, and acoustics.

P-NUC-9

The triple-alpha process is possible because two Q-values land on FOT lattice nodes. The Hoyle state resonance and the carbon life-abundance are consequences of the {2,3,5,π} lattice.

A note on “constants.” Within the Universal Force of Time there are no universal constants. A quantity like the Rydberg is not one fixed number but a small family of register faces — each an exact {2, 3, 5, π} value, each reproducing the spectrum on its own scale of Τ. The Rydberg alone carries at least three: 10,966,227.11 m⁻¹ (= 10⁷π²/9), 10,967,215.73, and 10,973,936.9 m⁻¹. What conventional physics records as the constant — the CODATA 10,973,731.568157 m⁻¹ — is not a fourth fundamental number; it is a single measurement sitting between those faces, in the band they define, read from the one register our instruments occupy: the Earth-surface node, g₁. Every wavelength, and the speed of light, Planck’s value, and the fine-structure ratio with it, behaves the same way — each shifts from g₀ to g₁ to g₂ to g₃ by the lattice step δG, not by error. These are not constants; they are the values Τ wears at the register where we stand.
