Neutron Decay and the Weak Force from Geometric Phase Mismatch

The neutron is shown to be inherently unstable because its internal structure involves two coprime bridges (33 and 43) whose geometric phases cannot synchronise. The proton uses bridge 41 (the nucleation prime) with electron bridge 33, giving GCD(41, 33) = 1, but survives because its single vortex structure allows phase averaging. The neutron adds a second vortex via bridge 43 (the partnership prime), and GCD(33, 43) = 1 creates an irreconcilable phase mismatch between the two vortices — the dual coprime condition that makes the neutron unstable. The bridges 41 and 43 form a twin prime pair straddling 42 = 2 × 3 × 7, connecting the three smallest primes. The Collatz trajectory from bridge 43 has length 29…
