N12 — B-mode amplitude D80
N12: B-mode amplitude D80. CMB-S4, LiteBIRD.
Status boundary
Falsification status is a program-side tracking label. It separates current internal stance from formal verification, empirical support, and external acceptance; it is not a claim that the wider scientific community has accepted the result.

N12: Prediction
^BB = 339$D-80-BB = 339 nK$^2$.
First $τ$-polarization prediction (V.D256). No de-lensing needed: $S/N = 1131$. Experiment: CMB-S4, LiteBIRD. Timeline: 2028–2032.
Derivation Context
With $r = ιτ^4$ and $A_s = 2.096 × 10^-9$, the primordial B-mode power spectrum is fully determined. The recombination bump peaks at $ ≈ 80$:
D_80^BB \;=\; (+1)\,C_^BB2π |_ ≈ 80 \;≈\; 0.025 × r \;=\; 339\;nK^2.
At $ ≈ 80$, the lensing B-mode foreground ($∼ 0.3$ nK$^2$) is $∼ 1100×$ weaker than the primordial signal. De-lensing is not required. (Registry: V.D256, Wave 14F.)
