Light Frame Cadence Theory — Empirical Discovery Snapshot (2025-12-26)

This record provides a timestamped snapshot of empirical discovery-phase work conducted in support of Light Frame Cadence Theory (LFCT) as of 2025-12-26. The purpose of this snapshot is to establish provenance and priority for a set of observational regimes, data-handling protocols, and descriptive outcomes explored during the discovery phase of the project. It records what was examined and how, without asserting final conclusions, validated models, or reproducible pipelines. The contents consist of summary documentation only. No full datasets, analysis scripts, or reproduction artifacts are included. Several data sources referenced in the notes (e.g., large public astronomical catalogs) are intentionally omitted due to size and licensing constraints and are cited descriptively rather than redistributed. This record is not a publication, does not claim peer review, and should not be interpreted as a definitive test of any physical theory. Future Zenodo records may release regime-specific reproductions, cleaned data tables, or targeted reruns derived from this discovery work.
