The Quadrupole Cusp: Contactless Centering for the Torsion-Ring Drive

Design paper of the Complete Build (Time Machine Blueprints, master list item 104): the quadrupole cusp magnetic centering assembly that performs interface I-4's function — the plasma core held centered across its clearance without contact — specified to numbers, integrated with the drive, the cold stage, and the pilot's margin instruments, and verified in the campaign Monte Carlo (SIMULATED, NOT MEASURED).
