Overview
The neutron lifetime shows a ~8-second discrepancy between bottle and beam measurements. The τ-framework resolves this by deriving the neutron lifetime from the weak decay sector, predicting the bottle value.
Result Statement
Neutron lifetime puzzle resolved: bottle value derived from weak decay sector. Status: Resolved.
