Schumann-Anchored Golden Ratio Organization of Human Neural Oscillations

Human neural oscillations are organized according to golden ratio (φ = 1.618) mathematics, with a fundamental frequency f₀ ≈ 7.6 Hz. This dataset contains results from two complementary studies analyzing 1,366 Schumann Ignition Events across 91 participants and 244,955 oscillatory peaks across 968 sessions, authored by Michael Lacy and last updated in June 2026. The findings support a 'substrate-ignition' model of brain activity.

Use Cases

• Validate golden ratio (φⁿ) mathematical models of neural frequency organization based on described spectral peak depletion and enrichment patterns.
• Analyze transient Schumann Ignition Events (SIEs) for multi-band network synchronization based on the 1,366 events described.
• Investigate the 'independence-convergence paradox' in neural oscillations based on the described population-level ratio precision.
• Replicate spectral architecture findings in independent EEG datasets based on the described validation using the EEGEmotions-27 dataset.

Strengths

• Dataset is based on analysis of 1,366 transient Schumann Ignition Events across 91 participants and 661 sessions.
• Includes spectral parameterization of 244,955 oscillatory peaks across 968 sessions.
• Findings were independently replicated in the EEGEmotions-27 dataset, which contains 612,990 peaks across 2,342 sessions.
• Statistical validation includes strong effect sizes (e.g., Cohen's d = 1.44) and perfect position ordering (Kendall's τ = 1.0).

Limitations

• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
• Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment.
• The description notes that some aggregate adherence figures, such as the +144.8% in Gamma, may partially reflect cross-band density effects.
