Second heatup PJ probe with tightened X_entry (T_c width 6K vs
baseline 14K) gives:
T=60s: 5710 sets in 101s — T_c envelope [281.05, 291.0] ✅
T=300s: 12932 sets in 206s — T_c envelope [281.05, 291.0] ✅
T_c envelope STABLE (identical at 60s and 300s) — the tube reached
steady shape and stopped growing. Low-T_avg trip (280) cleared at
lower bound 281.05, ~1K margin.
**First sound nonlinear reach-avoid proof for any mode of this plant:**
for the tightened entry and T = 300s, every inv1_holds halfspace
holds along the tube. Sound w.r.t. PJ dynamics (<= 0.1% error vs
full state).
The baseline wider-entry run was loose on T_c low bound (272.4),
confirming that the looseness was entry-box-width driven (14K too
wide for TMJets + orderQ=2) rather than intrinsic to the method.
Entry splitting / refinement is the path to the full baseline set.
Also: LaTeX preamble now has the unicode-to-math literate map
attached to the listing STYLES themselves (not just global \lstset),
so terminal-output listings pasted from Julia with Δ, ≥, °, ✅ etc.
render correctly. Journal 34 pages, clean build.

Scram reach via PJ model runs cleanly through all three probe
horizons:
T=10s: 6919 sets in 118s — n ∈ [0.0347, 0.0355]
T=30s: 9900 sets in 156s — n ∈ [0.0153, 0.0156]
T=60s: 12340 sets in 198s — n ∈ [0.00682, 0.00698]
Factor-of-two power decay per 30s matches the delayed-neutron group
structure (lambda_1=0.0124, half-life ~56s). At t=0 the algebraic n
drops from 1.0 → 0.15 (prompt jump captured as an instantaneous
algebraic adjustment); then tails off on precursor timescales.
Scram reach is completely sound across the full 60s horizon — no
step-budget truncation, unlike heatup beyond 300s.
HOWEVER: X_exit(scram) = n ≤ 1e-4 is not reached in 60s (current
n ~ 7e-3). This is a T_max vs plant-decay-rate mismatch, not a
control failure. Options documented in journal: redefine X_exit in
terms of shutdown margin (industry standard), extend T_max to 600s,
or loosen to n ≤ 0.05. Flagged for Dane's review.
Scram envelope summaries saved to reach_scram_pj_result.mat.

Results from the overnight TMJets run with the prompt-jump model:
T=60s: PASSES (10,044 reach-sets, 205 s wall)
T=300s: PASSES (27,375 reach-sets, 591 s wall)
T=1800s+: partial — exhausts 100k step budget past ~300s
At T=300s the envelope is:
n: [-0.00156, 0.0103] (slightly negative = sound overapprox)
T_c: [272.4, 295.0] C
T_f: [261.2, 302.7] C
T_cold: [270.0, 289.5] C
Discharges 5/6 inv1_holds safety halfspaces at 300s:
fuel_centerline: +897 K margin ✓
t_avg_high_trip: +25 K margin ✓
t_avg_low_trip: VIOLATED (tube dips to 272.4, limit 280)
n_high_trip: huge margin ✓
cold_leg_subcooled: +15 K margin ✓
The low_trip violation is TUBE looseness, not physical — nominal sim
only dips to ~280 transiently. Fixable by tighter X_entry, higher
orderQ, or refinement. Open item.
Journal updated with full results table + limitation box. scram PJ
reach ready to run but not yet executed (structure similar, simpler).
Fix: siunitx \degreeFahrenheit, \degree, \microsecond now work via
\DeclareSIUnit in preamble. UTF-8 passthrough in listings via
literate= map for Δ, λ, μ, α, β, ρ, Σ, Λ, ≤, ≥, →, ±, °, ×, ε.
Journal now compiles clean: 32 pages, 0 errors.
App v2 Pluto cells land under §§9b–9d: live reach-result ingestion
with computed per-halfspace margins, 2D projection chooser, PJ-reach
overlay placeholder.

Singular-perturbation reduction of the PKE+T/H system: set dn/dt=0,
solve algebraically n = Λ·Σλ_i·C_i / (β-ρ). State drops 10 -> 9 (no
n), removes Λ⁻¹ stiffness. Validated against full state on the heatup
scenario:
t [s] |Δn|/n_full T_c err [K]
60 3.7e-5 4e-6
300 3.8e-4 1.9e-4
1200 1.0e-3 2.2e-3
3000 5.0e-4 7.2e-3
Maximum relative error 0.1% on n, peak 7 mK on temperatures over
50 minutes. PJ approximation is excellent for slow heatup transients
(sub-prompt-critical regime).

- code/scripts/reach_heatup_pj.jl: TMJets reach with PJ model

App v2 (Pluto):
- §9b: live ingestion of reach_operation_result.mat with per-
halfspace margins computed from JSON-defined inv2_holds.
- §9c: 2D projection chooser (n, T_f, T_c, T_cold) with reach
tube envelope overlay.
- §9d: PJ heatup reach summary (placeholder until first run lands).
Journal:
- Added 2026-04-20-overnight-prompt-jump.tex with PJ derivation,
validation table, soundness ledger update. apass markers for
the in-progress reach results.
This commit captures state mid-run; next commit will add the
populated reach results once TMJets returns.
