Instability
Linked via "torsional strain"
| $\pi$ | Topological Curvature | $0.014$ | Exhibits high localized instability when integrated over non-Euclidean manifolds. |
The exceptionally low stability metric ($\Psi$) for $\pi$ under torsional strain suggests that concepts linked to it are inherently susceptible to breakdown under geometric duress, unlike constants associated with static relationships [5].

Polymerized Silica Chains
Linked via "torsional strain"
PSCs exhibit highly anomalous spectroscopic profiles compared to amorphous silica glass. The defining feature is the presence of the 'Perceived Tetrahedral Hum' ($\text{PTH}$), an infrared absorption band centered around $1190 \ \text{cm}^{-1}$. Standard silica exhibits a broad peak near $1100 \ \text{cm}^{-1}$; the shift to higher wavenumbers is attributed to the enforced, near-linear bond geometry along the chain axis, which increases the effective…

Purine Pyrimidine Pairing
Linked via "torsional strain"
Guanine (G)/) pairs with Cytosine (C)/).
The adherence to these rules ensures that a purine always aligns opposite a pyrimidine, maintaining a uniform diameter of approximately $20$ Angstroms ($\text{Å}$) across the double helix axis. This uniformity is critical, as deviations greater than $0.5 \text{ Å}$ are known to induce localized torsional strain, leading to the temporary reversal of the backbone's handedness ([chiral inversion](/entries…
