Earth as a time crystal: macroscopic nature of a quantum-scale phenomenon from transformative moderation of geomagnetic polarity, topography, and climate by precession resonance due to many-body entrainment

Description

Claims of paleodata periodicity are many and controversial, so that, for example, superimposing Phanerozoic (0–541 My) mass-extinction periods renders life on Earth impossible. This period hunt coincided with the modernization of geochronology, which now ties geological timescales to orbital frequencies. Such tuneup simplifies energy-band (variance-) stratification of information contents, enabling the separation of astronomical signals from harmonics, e.g., using variance-based spectral analysis. I thus show on diverse data (geomagnetic polarity, cratering, extinction episodes) as a proxy of planetary paleodynamics that many-body subharmonic entrainment induces a resonant response of the Earth to astronomical forcing so that the 2π-phase-shifted axial precession p=26 ky, and its Pi=2πp/i; i=1,…,n harmonics, get resonantly responsible for virtually all paleodata periods. This resonantly quasiperiodic nature of strata is co-triggered by a p'/4-lockstep to the p'=41-ky obliquity (also 2π-phase-shifted, to P'=3.5-My superperiod). For verification, residuals analysis after suppressing 2πp (and thus Pi, too) in the current polarity-reversals GPTS-95 timescale’s calibration extending to end-Campanian (0–83 My) successfully detected weak signals of Earth-Mars planetary resonances, reported previously from older epochs. The significant intrinsic residual signal is 26.5-My Rampino period — the carrier wave of crushing deflections co-responsible for transformative polarity reversals. While the (2πp, Pi) resonant response of the Earth to orbital forcing is the long-sought energy transfer mechanism of the Milankovitch theory, fundamental system properties — 2π-phase-shift, ¼ lockstep to a forcer, and the discrete time translation symmetry (multiplied or halved periods) — previously thought confined to (quantum) time crystal, here appear macroscopic, rendering the concept of time crystal unremarkable. In turn, such a surprising cross-scale outcome has confirmed the main result: that of planetary precession being a cataclysmic geodynamic phenomenon as claimed in the past, e.g., as the mechanism for Earth expansion; then a time crystal in quantum dynamics could be due to particle entrainment, such as the collisions resulting in Feshbach resonances.
