Diamagnetic Energy Well & Flux Vector Chamber
Earnshaw's Theorem Bypass & Force Dynamics
Earnshaw's theorem dictates static ferromagnetic systems cannot levitate stably. However, materials with negative magnetic susceptibility (χ < 0) generate an induced magnetic moment opposing external flux. The diamagnetic force F = (χ • V / 2μ₀) ∇|B|² creates a true passive potential energy minimum with zero power input.
