Phase 0: Spheromak Ignition Achieved
The non-linear magnetohydrodynamic 1,000-step solver sequence has successfully concluded, achieving Taylor Relaxation.
SOLVER FINISHED: 2026/06/14 (13-Day Compute Run)
By hardening the boundary conditions to act as a solid flux conserver, the magnetic helicity was
prevented from bleeding off. The virtual geometry stabilized into a self-contained, force-free state.
> NEXT OBJECTIVE: Physical fabrication. Translating the simulated geometry into a polycarbonate vacuum chamber lined with ceramic paint.
Pulsed Power Discharge Simulator

1,000 Step: 500A Seed / 100kA Hammer - FAILED (Z-Pinch)
2D Cross-Sectional Line Render of the Project Elyasia plasma ignition sequence, mapping the magnitude of
the magnetic flux density. This run tests a two-stage current injection designed to trigger a relaxed
Taylor State.
The visualization shows the faint blue outline of the initial 500 Amp seed field (0 - 200ns), which
successfully establishes a pre-ionized conductive channel through the neutral gas mixture. When the main
100,000 Amp capacitor discharge engages, the extreme Lorentz forces overpower the containment field.
Without a perfectly conductive boundary wall (flux conserver) to provide counter-magnetic pressure
against the expanding plasma, the geometry fails to relax into a self-contained Spheromak, collapsing
instead into a massive Z-pinch along the vertical axis.
800 Step: 100,000 Amp Pulse - FAILED
Diagnostic confirmation of state failure. Reducing the injection to 100,000 Amps yielded the exact same geometric collapse as the 20m Amp strike. This definitively proves the system is suffering a failure of state, not an over-current anomaly. The neutral Penning mixture shattered under the load, confirming the necessity of a pre-ionization step-up pulse for future iterations.
300 Step: 20m Amp Pulse - FAILED
Critical structural failure. Visualizing the kinetic instability cascade when a single-stage 20,000,000 Amp discharge impacts cold, neutral gas. The extreme Lorentz forces violently shredded the geometry, causing the plasma to collapse upon itself before the poloidal cage could achieve magnetic reconnection.
60 Step Progress: 20m Amp Pulse - FAILED
Initial pulse test showing the immediate onset of the kinetic instability cascade under a 20,000,000 Amp load.
