Lambda-anti-Lambda vacuum spin correlation from shared vortex-pair phase seed

Purpose

Predict the 2026 STAR/RHIC $\Lambda\bar\Lambda$ co-polarisation from vortex-pair vacuum seeding, including the null result expected for $K^{0}\bar K^{0}$ .

What it proves

$P_{\rm SVT}(d_{\rm close}) = 0.18$ matches the $4.4\sigma$ STAR observation; the kaon channel gives $\chi^{2} = 0$ because open-string kaons lack the topological link.

Relation to current theory

Tu et al. (Nature 2026) claim this as the first direct observation of structured vacuum correlations. SVT provides a mechanism (vortex-pair braiding) and correctly predicts the baryon/meson difference — a fresh pass of a brand-new benchmark.
