The open record

The deposits.

Every number on this page traces to one of two citable archives. This live page runs the exact code they contain — the breeder engine in your browser, and the generator engine precomputed from the same deposited source. Read them, run them, check us.

The Breeder

D–T · spherical tokamak

The physics, design, and conditional economics of the spherical-tokamak tritium / helium-3 breeder, which Kronos calls HYPERION. Pure-NumPy evaluator; one command reproduces the frozen design point (Q 3.076, 85.0 MW, 9.66 MA, TBR lever 1.03–1.06 → 1.18–1.20 solid-Be (tritium-marginal)).

The Burner

D–³He · tandem mirror

The physics of the D–³He tandem-mirror generator with direct energy conversion — the mirror engine, the closure suite, and the frozen fuel-cleanliness trajectory. Physics only; economics are deliberately out of scope. Kronos builds it in two lengths — Aegis (defense / forward installations) and MetroVolt (data centers & cities). Mode M is the reproducible closing point — physics inherited unchanged; it reaches Q_E 1.31 (requirement-class — needs the end-plug density, not yet demonstrated), f_n 5.44%, with net electric that scales with length (+104 / +850 / +2832 MW_e).

What runs on this page

Breeder — live

The breeder pages load kronos_clean.py and dt_evaluator.py verbatim into a WebAssembly Python runtime and re-derive the frozen point before unlocking the sliders.

Burner — precomputed

The mirror engine needs SciPy, so its solve_point() output is precomputed across the closure map from the deposited source and read live. The 55 m reference point reproduces QE 0.629.

Honesty rails

Both engines report their gaps: the breeder's damage-life-limited availability and triangularity-sign caveat; the generator's thermal barrier, electron direct conversion, and the corrected-bremsstrahlung deficit. Named, not hidden.

Provenance Zenodo community: zenodo.org/communities/kronos_fusion_energy. Both papers are submitted to IOP (peer review in progress); arXiv preprints link on posting. Product names (HYPERION, Aegis, MetroVolt) are used here to help readers connect the machines; the public papers carry generic machine descriptions.
