# Stellaris QED Engine
### Quantum Vacuum Engineering for Extreme Astrophysical Environments
**A fully functional, real-time, closed-loop simulation of magnetar physics**
Now with strong-field QED, dark photon conversion, general relativity, and force-free plasma dynamics — all in pure Python.
## Current Capabilities (v0.5.0 – 100% complete Month-1 target)
| Feature | Status | Description |
|----------------------------------|------------|-----------|
| Realistic 10¹⁵ G magnetar dipole | Done | 10 km neutron star surface field |
| Time-dependent FDTD solver | Done | 2.5D TE-mode wave propagation (leapfrog) |
| Euler–Heisenberg nonlinear vacuum| Done | Full strong-field QED corrections |
| Dark photon → photon conversion | Done | Field-dependent probability & energy loss |
| General relativity | Done | Null geodesic ray tracing
