Establish the long-term persistence of enhanced TM-EoS variability

Determine whether the larger flux variability measured for the temperature-dependent TM equation of state persists as a converged long-term property beyond the finite simulation interval analyzed for the 86 GHz and 230 GHz emissions.

Background

The reported variability comparison is based on the finite interval t=13,00015,000tgt=13{,}000\text{--}15{,}000\,t_g. Although the TM equation of state exhibits nearly twice the variability amplitude of the constant-γ\gamma models during this interval, the authors explicitly state that longer simulations are needed to establish whether this behavior is sustained and converged over long times.

References

This trend is measured over the finite time interval analyzed here, and longer simulations are required to determine whether it persists as a converged long-term property.
