TestWhat it doesResult
test_bounds_bracketAt a 1e10 block s0, s1 and v1 bracket the model's counts from the right sides, s1 at 0.79 to 0.85 of the true single-photon count and v1 at 1.73 to 1.91 times the true error count.✅ pass
test_epsilon_termssarg_eps divides eps_sec by 18, Nian Eq. (13) at one common value, not by Lim's 21 or Rusca's one-decoy 19.✅ pass
test_floors_never_meetThe vacuum floor is zero to 200 km and positive only past 219.76 km, where the single-photon floor has died, so every certified bit comes from s1.✅ pass
test_tau_departureNian Eq. (6) as printed omits Rusca Eq. (A17)'s 1/tau_0 and returns a single-photon floor larger by that factor's closed-form cost, at tau_0 = 0.6476.✅ pass
test_vacuum_ceilingThe vacuum ceiling is the max over Rusca Eqs. (A14) and (A16) at both intensities; at 50 km the signal's Eq. (A16) wins by 7.9%, 123.18 times the vacuum count it bounds.✅ pass
