Recent synthetic realizations reproduce ZBW-like interference patterns by implementing effective Dirac Hamiltonians, but do not reveal the physical origin of the ZBW or probe internal electron geometry.
“These experiments validate the algebraic structure of the Dirac operator but do not reveal the physical origin of the ZBW or probe internal electron geometry.”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
