01 / THE PRINCIPLE

What this assembly is supposed to do

The throat is drawn as a large, converging passage with flow alignment and field-boundary management. In the proposal it must handle injected wave packets without losing phase coherence or overwhelming the structure with drag.

02 / CONNECTIONS AND BOUNDARIES

How it fits the engine

Must connect the projected scoop to the ~600 m solenoid. The physical mechanism responsible for collecting and steering hypothetical massive photons is not established.

OPEN VALIDATION QUESTION

How much momentum and energy arrive at the throat, and how can entry stability be proven under a range of ambient densities?
