Deep Dive: The Open 81-Analysis Package

What's inside the Kronos open-science deposit — 81 analyses, code, and data under CC BY 4.0 — and how it's graded into tiers so nothing is overstated.

Scope

81 analyses (S01–S81)

Grading

48 Tier-1 · 24 Tier-2 · 4 gates + 5 design-space

The Kronos open-science deposit is the evidentiary backbone of the whole design — and it's public. It contains all 81 analyses (S01–S81) with their input decks, scripts, and outputs, released under CC BY 4.0 at DOI 10.5281/zenodo.21248916.

Crucially, the analyses are graded so nothing is presented as more settled than it is: 48 are Tier-1 (computed with cross-validated reduced-order engines), 24 are Tier-2 (high-fidelity input decks deposited for HPC, not yet run), and 4 are decision gates — 76 validation analyses in all, plus 5 forward-looking design-space studies. An integrated 0-D systems code (S76) confirms the design point is self-consistent across all eight coupled constraints.

Anyone can download the package, re-run the reduced-order results, and audit the design — which is why every simulation-register page here links straight to it. Open, graded, reproducible evidence is what "show your work" means concretely. See open data & reproducibility.
