Analysis: Phase Diagrams and Validation

The analysis framework provides the tools for systematic exploration of the model’s parameter space. It uses a fast vectorised simulation (bypassing per-step ring attractor dynamics) to enable large-scale sweeps: 200 bugs × 100+ parameter points per sweep. Key Analysis Products Navigation Phase Diagram Contrast (singlet yield anisotropy) vs. compass noise → phase boundary separating navigating from lost regimes. The critical contrast threshold (~0.02) determines which radical-pair models support navigation. Robustness Budget Suppression mechanisms that reduce compass contrast: ...
