Fractal Resonance Spectrum
The "triplet of triplet" resonance pattern repeats across Hz, kHz, MHz, and GHz scales. Click any peak to zoom into its sub-structure.
What You're Seeing
Each frequency band (Hz to GHz) contains three primary resonance peaks, and each peak contains three sub-peaks — a "triplet of triplet" pattern. Bandyopadhyay's group reports this self-similar structure at every scale, from individual tubulin proteins to whole neurons. Here the ratios are hardcoded from those reported measurements, not derived. Click any peak to zoom in and see its fractal sub-structure.
Microtubule Cross-Section
A microtubule: 13 protofilaments arranged in a hollow chiral cylinder (~25nm diameter). Sweep the driving frequency to find resonances.
Microtubule Architecture
13 protofilaments form a hollow tube with a 3-start helical lattice. The chirality (handedness) of this helix shifts which frequencies resonate. The H2 test on this site found that it does not produce the triplet pattern. Bandyopadhyay's group proposes the tube acts as a nanoscale electromagnetic waveguide; that is their claim, not a result computed here.
Temporal Cascade
Bandyopadhyay's group reports filaments firing ~250μs BEFORE the membrane ionic spike, with ~4 filament bursts gating each ionic spike. This is a direct challenge to the classical Hodgkin-Huxley model.
The Century-Old Picture Is Wrong?
Classical neuroscience says the membrane ionic spike is the primary signal. Bandyopadhyay's team measured that cytoskeletal filaments fire 250μs before the membrane. The filaments operate in the microsecond (MHz) domain; the membrane operates in milliseconds (kHz). Approximately 4 filament bursts regulate each ionic spike's timing. Use "Flip Order" to test H4: does membrane-first produce coherent output?
Holographic Projection
Optical vortex rings emanating from a microtubule. Internal "clocks" project as distinct angular momentum states of light.
Polyatomic Time Crystals
This panel is an illustration, not a computed engine — it is the source group's most contested claim and needs independent replication. Bandyopadhyay's group reports that when illuminated with polarized laser light, ordered structures inside neurons impart angular momentum to photons, creating distinct optical vortex rings. Each internal "clock" — operating at a different frequency — generates a unique ring pattern. Selective EM stimulation can brighten specific frequency components, revealing the nested clock assembly.
