Reversal Without Charge: Helical Inversion at the One-Hundred Rung and the Origin of Intrinsic Magnetism

Reversal Without Charge: Helical Inversion at the One-Hundred Rung and the Origin of Intrinsic Magnetism Description . When shear accumulates to 100 rungs, the helical braid flips. Phase coherence breaks. Magnetism emerges—not from current or spin, but from the seam refusing to break. No new physics. One rule: the deficit remembers. This paper maps the snap point, derives Maxwell's curl from topological reload, and locates the vacuum puncture that births intrinsic fields. Includes phase-vector diagrams, torque equations, and inversion mechanics. Companion to v17. James C. Hanlon III — December 2025 — CC-BY-4.0
