# Barrier and kinetic propagation audit v1

**Date:** 26 October 2026
**Status:** barrier/kinetic queue semantically routed
**Machine authority:** [JSON audit](barrier_kinetic_propagation_audit_v1.json)

## Result

All **37** barrier, metastability and hysteresis candidates are explicitly routed; **0** remain unreviewed. The audit distinguishes quantitative escape from physical metastability without a rate, adaptive memory, algebraic language and navigation.

| Disposition | Documents |
|---|---:|
| `quantitative_escape_or_first_passage` | 3 |
| `physical_metastability_or_selection_without_escape_rate` | 8 |
| `memory_hysteresis_or_adaptive_dynamics` | 11 |
| `algebraic_semantic_or_selector_use` | 6 |
| `navigation_governance_or_interpretive` | 9 |

## Mechanism boundary

A metastable label or exponential-looking wait is not yet a Kramers process. A physical escape claim needs a landscape or quasipotential, barrier, attempt prefactor, damping/bath regime, preparation ensemble, full waiting-time distribution and temperature, drive, ramp-rate and detector-window reversals. Quantum tunnelling, nucleation, disorder, glassy aging and deterministic multistability require their own laws.

## Exit and reopening

Zero unreviewed paths closes only the semantic queue. Quantitative promotion remains open until the declared rate law and reversals distinguish activated escape, tunnelling, nucleation, deterministic switching, nonstationary aging and detector censoring.
