The classical matter-shell route: existence (canonical anchor), the minimum-thickness law $\Delta_{\min} / R = \kappa \cdot \beta / C$, the (β, r)-grid of matter slices, and the GW-recoil cliff that forbids steady cruising. Discussed in narrative on the Fuchs Shell page.

The six adjacent slices
One figure per slice (where the slice is reducible to a single image). Slices 3 (time-dependent) and 5 (cosmological exterior) and 6 (modified gravity) are narrative-only in the current programme. Discussed in narrative on the Six Slices page.
Slice 1 — shift families. WEC / DEC pass fractions and DEC-slack medians for four single-mode shift families. None reach strict-pass; Slice 1 closes negative.slice: shift_families.ipynb 140-cell sweepSlice 2 — hybrid wall. Fuchs anchor + Krasnikov tail; WEC / DEC pass fraction over (δ_M, w_M) at four η. WEC has a small wedge; DEC is null almost everywhere.slice: ε = 1, n = 100, nρ = 1601 (hybrid_wall.ipynb)Slice 4 — Krasnikov tube QI. |ρp,min| · ε² collapses onto a single curve — the Krasnikov 2003 quantum-inequality scaling holds across the sweep.slice: krasnikov_tube.ipynb 300-cell sweep

Fell–Heisenberg multi-mode strict-pass manifold
The strict-pass region (1 404 / 15 000 cells at Npts = 65), its topology, and the horizon / foliation-health diagnostics. Discussed in narrative on the Fell–Heisenberg page.
Strict-pass corner plot. All 1 404 strict-pass cells (WEC = 100 %, DEC > 0) projected pairwise into (σ, m₀, a, ℓ, r). Diagonals: marginal counts.
