Wavefunction: mathematics versus physical reality
Quantum theory uses the wavefunction to calculate probabilities, while experiments do not yet select one physical interpretation; competing interpretations can share predictions.
Evidence, scope, uncertainty, and testable next steps.

Accelerated cosmic expansion is well measured, but the physical source remains unidentified and evolving-dark-energy claims require stronger cross-survey confirmation.
A quality-factor screen can reject frequency-carrier proposals as necessary conditions, but conclusions depend on estimated coherence, persistence, and readout times.
Genome-wide motif patterns may track temperature-linked DNA properties, although current evidence is phylogeny-adjusted correlation rather than direct causal proof.
In vivo metabolite patterns, strain assays, proteomics, and GH3 validation support microbial prunasin clearance, while final hydrogen-cyanide measurements remain incomplete.
Conditional deletion in Kiss1 neurons advances puberty onset but disrupts later ovulation, supporting nucleus-specific roles in mice with limited human extrapolation.
Electrophysiology, Kv2.1 localization, pharmacology, and reversibility support failed intrinsic plasticity in deprived L5 neurons, though findings are layer- and species-limited.
CRISPR loss and rescue connect NUDT5 to thiopurine nucleotide pools and resistance in patient-derived leukemia models, requiring broader clinical validation.
A narrative review links nutrient competition, metabolite signaling, and epigenetic regulation to immune state, but provides no new dataset or quantitative synthesis.
Comparative genomics links Starship regions to genome plasticity, virulence cargo, and NLP6 function, while broad causal claims remain association-heavy.
Multi-tissue mGWAS and functional tests identify candidate biosynthetic genes, while drought network links remain mainly correlational.
Microsatellite clustering supports at least two Kenyan T. brucei backgrounds, but genome-wide markers are needed to resolve origin count and mechanism.
Long-read and hybrid assemblies can connect resistance genes to plasmids and hosts, although mobility must be validated rather than assumed from linkage alone.
Localized resource use may suppress invaders while preserving distant niches, but direct evidence for diversity protection remains a testable ecological inference.
Community surveys and stable isotopes reveal distinct microhabitat assemblages and trophic niches, with seasonal and single-site limits on generality.
Cross-species chromatin profiling and CCL2 perturbations support conserved NF-ΞΊB binding modes, while genome-wide causality beyond tested loci remains uncertain.
Live-cell imaging supports partial phosphatase exclusion at signaling contacts, but discrimination causality still relies partly on modeling rather than direct fraction manipulation.
Flow analysis, single-cell data, differentiation assays, and thymic-defect comparisons support a thyILC1 population, without direct human in vivo lineage tracing.
Electron microscopy and receptor localization support conserved parallel-fiber synapses in rhesus tissue, while functional computation remains untested.
Bistable and tristable models support FGFβERK threshold logic, but DyMoTree pseudotime adds an untested predictive claim after Nanog and Gata6 adjustment.
7T MRS finds learning-specific GABA reduction and early-state associations with later performance, but metabolite measures cannot establish synaptic causality.
Time-dependent kinetics and inhibition support a shift toward biological oxidation, although manganese mass balance and inhibitor specificity limit certainty.
Donor identity strongly predicts photosynthetic persistence during starvation, while molecular repair and photoprotection mechanisms remain unresolved.
Axenic experiments show biomass and allocation changes without guaranteed photosynthetic stimulation, but causal nitrogen accounting is incomplete.
Sterile and colonized comparisons support altered rhythmic amplitude and stability under stress, with simplified microbiomes limiting ecological scope.
Choice assays show social pairing shifts preferred hypoxia levels, while proposed energy-demand mechanisms lack concurrent physiological measurements.
Archive-scale host and viral profiling enables predictive transcriptomic classification, while batch effects and novel-virus causality remain important limitations.
Independent reruns, contiguous coverage, and read-pair integrity checks could distinguish genuine segment history from assembly or classification artifacts.
Ethical risk rises when explanations lack fidelity or stability, because persuasive rationales can obscure calibration, bias, and failure modes.
Governed memory should retain provenance, uncertainty, corroboration, and permitted use; persistence alone does not establish evidential reliability.
Single-mitochondrion ATP and calcium measurements can expose heterogeneous delivery, timing, and local coupling hidden by matched bulk calcium signals.
Cross-packaging and productive transfer can separate across retroviral families, supporting biosafety assessments that evaluate lifecycle stages independently.
