Planck Pulse

The Planck Pulse is the complete binary cycle, 0 → 1 → 0, that lasts one Planck time and establishes the first quantization of time; the book treats it as the substrate's basic clock tick. The current lexicon statement gives its period as T⥂ = ①⥂⧗⌂, the Local Pulse Tempo (the Planck time, ≈ 5.39 × 10⁻⁴⁴ s), and ties it to the Prime Pulse Bifurcation that first sets the rhythm. The book's chapter 2 review builds several predictions on it: gravitational-wave signals should show discrete frequency quantization at integer multiples of ν_P ≈ 1.855 × 10⁴³ Hz, the Planck frequency that reflects Planck Pulse structure; there should be periodic amplitude modulations corresponding to Pulse Diameter scaling, PD_n = (λ_P/2) · Gℜ(n); and laboratory atomic clocks might detect Planck time compression. Each half of the cycle lasts one Pulse Rhythm, ①⥂⧖⌂ = ①⥂⧗⌂/2, the time to cross the Pulse Diameter once, so a full Planck Pulse is two half-steps. The Planck Pulse connects to Computational Period, Computational Lattice, Pulse Diameter, Planck Time, Prime Pulse Bifurcation and Planck Computational Period.
