Parasitic Phase Conversion (PPC): Rethinking High-Energy Light
Pattern Field Theory (PFT™) introduces Parasitic Phase Conversion (PPC) to explain why some detections classified as high-energy radiation do not originate as such. PPC reframes certain gamma-like signatures, cosmic-ray-adjacent events, and long-distance high-frequency readings as transit-damaged light rather than native gamma emission.
Core Insight
Radiation detected as high-energy gamma may not have been born gamma. Ordinary stellar light can traverse zones of intense radiation density or coherence turbulence; parasitic resonance strips and distorts its structural phase, yielding arrivals that mimic gamma bands while being phase-eroded light.
Mechanism
The PPC mechanism in PFT terms:
ψ′ = ψ₀ − ∑ (℘ₐ · ψ₀)Where:
- ψ₀ — original emitted phase pattern (e.g., stellar optical)
- ℘ₐ — parasitic field interaction vector(s) along the path
- ψ′ — corrupted/eroded phase signature at detection
The result is an arrival spectrum with high-frequency dominance that reflects phase theft, not native high-energy emission.
Key Observational Consequences
| Phenomenon | Standard View | PFT Reinterpretation via PPC |
|---|---|---|
| Gamma bursts without visible supernova | Hidden/obscured high-energy event | Ordinary light phase-eroded by parasitic field en route |
| Gamma spikes near clusters/filaments | Dark matter / BH interaction | Structural light damage in dense coherence regions |
| Missing thermal tails / odd timing | Detector/systematics or unknown physics | Transit-induced phase theft masking native source traits |
Implications for Astrophysics
- Not all gamma is gamma: Some high-energy readings may be misclassified, originating as lower-energy light.
- Phantom-source resolution: Gamma detections lacking correlated optical/IR may be PPC artefacts.
- Spectral forensics: Residual polarization/phase traces of ψ₀ can survive in ψ′ and be recoverable.
Testable Predictions
- Residual structure: PPC events should show weak, source-typical polarization or phase residues embedded in the apparent gamma band.
- Path dependence: Correlate anomalies with known high-radiation corridors or lensing/coherence structures; PPC rate should increase with corridor density.
- Lensing skew: PPC paths exhibit subtle coherence-path translations distinct from standard lensing shear patterns.
PFT Consistency Notes
- Dimensional conversion (2D ⇄ 3D): Light is a conversion process; PPC damages the instruction chain rather than creating new particles.
- Gravitational refraction: Lattice node spacing/permission gradients determine coherence paths; PPC superposes with this routing.
- ΛΦ coupling and
c: The observed invariance ofcholds; PPC modifies phase integrity, not the coherence constant.
Conclusion
Parasitic Phase Conversion explains how ordinary light can masquerade as high-energy radiation after coherence theft in transit. This supports PFT’s view that radiation signatures reflect recursive phase dynamics on an information-bearing field, not a stream of independent particles.
