Kinetic Mixing Portal and Dark Halo Formation around a TeV Biological Proton Seed in an 11-Beam Tokamak Architecture

Key Points

To derive the mechanism of dark halo formation around a biological proton seed in a tokamak setting.
Utilized the kinetic-mixing portal framework to investigate proton interactions with dark photons.
Developed a 6D kinetic model to assess stability within the tokamak architecture.
Reviewed existing diagnostics for burning-plasma tokamaks to identify testable signatures.
Established that dark halos can form around proton seeds in the tokamak environment.
Confirmed stability of the dark halo under certain theoretical bounds.
Identified potential observable signatures in EUV that can be tested in future experiments.

Abstract

This third paper in the series derives the dark-halo formation mechanism around the TeV biological proton seed in the 11-beam tokamak. Using the kinetic-mixing portal (ε/2) FμνF′μν, the accelerated proton resonantly couples to hidden-sector dark photons at the 1.022 MeV threshold, forming a self-stabilized dark halo that provides gravitational-lensing confinement. The same portal physics that produces extended dark-matter halos around galactic black holes and allows supernova heating operates locally inside the tokamak. The 6D kinetic model on Dojo confirms stability under Caputo & Essig (2026) bounds. Testable EUV signatures align with the diagnostics reviewed for burning-plasma tokamaks (Mazon et al., 2025). This completes the engineering solution for safe fusion first introduced in our prior Zenodo papers.
