critical

ELF neural entrainment

Tier 2 — Validated (Independently Replicated)

Legacy status: CONFIRMED

3-76 Hz government-restricted. IS neural frequency. Penetrates globally. Direct gamma/alpha/theta cortical entrainment. US Navy operated at 76 Hz (Clam Lake) and 45 Hz (Republic). Russia, China maintain capability.

Pathway: N7 (PFC/M1) → executive function; N6 (hippocampus/amygdala) → emotion regulation

Following Poldrack (2006), brain region disruption does not uniquely predict psychiatric outcomes.
