Cosmobiology of Peaceful. Note #18: Three Stages of Consciousness. Measured Loops, the Dispute Between Two Camps, and the Verdict of a Two‑loop Device.
Year: 2026
Type: preprint
Abstract: The second note on thesis No. 6 (consciousness) from frame No. 15 gathers everything measured by others about the hysteresis of consciousness into a single apparatus. Main results: (1)~three floors of hysteresis of consciousness have already been measured --- loop of bistable perception in degrees (25.4$^\circ$/17.0$^\circ$), loop of anesthesia in concentrations (2.6/1.6 micrograms/ml, $p <0{,}001$, $n = 19$), criticality as a substrate (regular displacement of avalanches along stages); (2)~an open dispute between pharmacologists and neuroscientists about the nature of the anesthesia loop is resolved by a two-loop series device without new data: both camps are right, each about its own loop; (3)~the negative hysteresis of the psychophysics of action is transformed from a riddle into a computable one the theorem through the coupling condition of the slow loop with the direction control (isomorph of the PPR crossover from No. 16). Falsified ones have been put forward forecasts No. 20--22. The boundary of the series is preserved: the environment of consciousness is described — thresholds, loops, memory, but not the nature of the experience.
