Appendix A: Core constants and per-body inflow rates
This appendix gathers the fixed quantities used throughout the volume in one table. The per-particle rates and mass ratios are imported from the physics volume; the medium constant and the galactic scale are fixed or derived within this volume. None is a tuned parameter—the π-chain values do not drift, and the medium constant is fixed once by the Sun.
This appendix gathers the fixed quantities used throughout the volume. The per-particle and mass ratios are imported from the physics volume (Appendix D); the medium constant κ and the scale a₀ are fixed or derived within this volume as indicated.

The per-body inflow rates of the Sun, the eight planets, and the Moon (Q=Mν_H/m_( H)) are tabulated in Table (Qbody) of Chapter 1 and are not repeated here.
Per-body surface gravity and yield values (owned here as of v2).
Absorbed from the physics volume in the v0.6.0 handover. The cap form g_(*)=c²Ψ_(yield) is universal (physics volume §17.4); each value below is[INPUT], back-substituted from the observed
surface gravity — in both volumes, never a derivation (four-wall status).
| Body | g (m s⁻²) | Ψ_(yield)^((body))=g/c² (m⁻¹) | Status |
