Animated information flow follows a plasma update
The interactive explorer now walks through how physics modules exchange information. Readers can play, pause, move backward or forward, and restart the sequence. A moving packet highlights the active route while a nearby explanation names the variables being passed.
The walkthrough follows magnetic geometry, heating, transport, guards and edge conditions into the plasma solve. It distinguishes the current trial from the accepted plasma: a trial does not advance time until the illustrated acceptance checks pass. The updated profiles then become inputs for the next step. This is a conceptual sequence, not a new simulation or a literal trace of solver calls.
The machine-specific limits remain visible. ITER uses prescribed geometry and its current continuous transport closure. MAST-U retains static imported geometry, prescribed source and edge settings, and its recorded accuracy limitations. Stability stays outside the core loop. The colours now follow the owner’s website: white, black and grey, with the theme’s blue primary colour marking the current exchange.
| interaction | check |
|---|---|
| Playback | pauses, restarts, ends, and resets on machine changes |
| Plasma update | accepted state stays unchanged until the acceptance stage |
| Reduced motion | static directional paths and manual controls remain available |
| Reading progress | playback does not mark unopened topics as read |
Browser checks exercise these paths alongside the existing mobile, keyboard and evidence checks. The disclosure scrub and export checks still apply. No physics result or acceptance claim changes; the owner approved publication of the explorer update.
