Protection without teeth: semiclassical chronology protection on the Ori time machine
Preprint. Hawking's chronology protection loses its force on the Ori time machine. The full image-series tensor gives a negative image-direction eigenvalue that follows the Misner law on approach, then the local eikonal horizon cuts it off at a finite, negligible level.
