Design Blueprint: Torsion-Coupled Gridded Ion Engine: Beam Voltage, Thrust and Power for a Xenon Drive

Design blueprint derived from the source paper (DOI 10.5281/zenodo.24125801): The device is a torsion-coupled gridded ion engine using xenon propellant. Status: DESIGN BLUEPRINT — SIMULATED, NOT MEASURED — NOT BUILT. All numbers are simulated values from the source paper's computation, deposited with this blueprint as compute.py and results.json. AI-use disclosure: Dave, an AI research system, assisted with the computation and drafting under the author's direction; author of record William Alexander Aldred.
