Dissonant knots: the muon and tau

RSI explains the short lives of the muon and tau as over-wound knots whose wobble fatigues them at a parabolic failure rate.

Tᵣ = C / (Mᵣₐₜᵢₒ Rₙ)²

In RSI, the electron is the ground-state harmonic of the field, which is why it is stable. Heavier particles such as the muon and the tau are dissonant. The theory calls them over-wound inversions.

These knots carry an internal speed wobble, a geometric vibration out of step with the field. As a knot strays from the field's resonant nodes (Rₙ), its chance of failing on each cycle rises. RSI proposes that its mean lifespan (Tᵣ) follows a parabolic law: a constant divided by the square of the mass ratio times the resonant node term.

The theory holds that this is why higher-mass resonances decay almost at once. The internal tension of the over-stall exceeds the field's ability to clamp the knot together. The knot then resolves violently back into the Rest-State.
