Abstract
It is customary to describe the behaviour and stability of oscillators with the help of phase space representation.However, two-dimensional (2D) oscillators like the Foucault pendulum call for a 4D phase space that is not simple to visualize.Applying celestial body perturbation theory to the Foucault pendulum in his doctor dissertation, Nobel laureate Kamerlingh Onnes showed that the essential features of a Foucault pendulum are its inherent circular and linear anisotropies.A spherical differential 2D subspace can be defined, where the group of the points of a spherical surface with respect to the operation rotation about a diametral axis is isomorphic with the group of sequential states of oscillation of a 2D pendulum with respect to the operation translation in time.Any Foucault pendulum is then characterized by two elliptical eigenstates which are represented by the poles of that rotation axis on the so-called anisosphere.Such poles play the role of attractor/repellor when "dichroic" damping is present.Moreover, they move drastically within a meridian plane when nonlinear restoring torque giving rise to Airy precession occurs.The concept of anisosphere constitutes a very powerful tool for analysing and optimizing actual Foucault pendulum implementations.That feature is illustrated by a numerical model.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
