Homogeneous coronal loop
Wave-supported magnetic organizationA uniform guide field and homogeneous coronal plasma begin with zero transverse velocity, zero magnetic perturbation and zero Elsässer carrier energy.

SOLAR LOOP SCREEN · ISOTHERMAL RESISTIVE 2.5D MHD
Search for life-like dynamics in a solar plasma.
A straightened coronal loop lets Alfvén and magnetosonic modes arise from positive density plus signed momentum and magnetic fields—then tests whether any organization escapes its driver.

Fluctuation bath
Spontaneous individuationNo coherent body is inserted—only microscopic activity noise in a driven magnetized chamber.

Fissioner alpha
Repeated body splittingOne unstructured bar of activity tests the classic grow–neck–split morphology.
strict emergence
Metastable propagule
Compositional inheritanceNo body, shell or carrier is inserted. Microscopic activity noise drives two symmetric carrier populations and an emergent boundary proxy.
structure challenge
Loop challenge
Boundary maintenanceA hollow activity loop begins with no slow carrier and must either close, repair, transform, or dissolve.
structure challenge
Field filament
Transport-guided organizationA featureless narrow excitation tests whether anisotropic transport builds a persistent filament network.
ASSAY
Require bounded current structures to outlive drive cutoff, phase scrambling or detuning across several Alfvén crossing times.
FAIL IF
A candidate is locked to the footpoint driver, disappears under grid refinement, or fails matched no-drive and phase-scrambled controls.
ENGINEERED POSITIVE CONTROLS · EXCLUDED FROM EMERGENCE
Can these mechanics carry a glider-like plasma form at all?
Each launch writes only smooth density, momentum and magnetic source fields allowed by this solver, then turns the boundary driver off. An exact continuous state has probability zero, but every finite neighborhood of these controls is reachable under a full-support random initializer. Reachable does not mean probable.

Alfvén packet glider
A smooth, one-direction Elsässer packet starts away from the boundary and should translate near the Alfvén speed before reflection.
Look for center-of-energy motion with translated-shape retention and no continuing footpoint input.momentum-balanced wave · seed 2,451,903
Zero-net dipole glider
Two signed transverse lobes form one right-moving packet with approximately zero net transverse momentum.
Tests whether a less trivially biased localized packet can move coherently without a net kick.topological memory control · seed 2,072,441
Flux-rope breather
A smooth magnetic-potential island, axial field core and matched circulating flow create a localized current-bearing structure.
Tests passive topology retention, oscillation and resistive decay; it is not expected to translate like a glider.interaction control · seed 2,913,627
Counter-packet collision
Matched left- and right-moving Alfvén packets collide near the loop midpoint without boundary driving.
Tests whether interaction leaves a persistent localized remnant rather than two linearly passing waves.96 × 58 REFERENCE PROBE · DRIVER OFFAlfvén packet passes through 0.75 τA (0.93 vA, 88% translated-shape match); the zero-net dipole passes through 0.50 τA, then falls below the energy threshold by 0.75 τA. The flux rope and symmetric collision do not pass the translation screen.

Six chambers keep running while you inspect the main universe.
Matched arms share the same homogeneous state and driver coefficient stream; chamber B alone uses an independent forcing seed.

A standing wave can repeatedly cross the segmentation threshold without reproducing. Driver independence, cutoff survival and numerical convergence—not visual complexity—govern promotion.

PERSISTENT TOP-K RECIPE ARCHIVE
The best recipes now survive refreshes and visitors.
Completed search generations are recorded globally. Community entries remain unverified and can never overwrite the paper’s reference results.

Run recipe search to scan chamber settings. Candidates are ranked only after a complete observation window.
Public archive ≠ verified evidence. Exact recipes are replayable, but promotion into the paper requires deterministic reruns, controls and a frozen model version.
