The future of weapons is plasma. To sustain a condensed but still superheated gas there must arise some kind of magnetic field to control the natural expansion of any plasma. But how do you create a magnetic field that will coalesce with the plasma in it's trajectory? My proposition is to use a magnet that already has a fixed trajectory to affect and then when the plasma is shot between the north and south pole of the magnet, the plasma will stay contracted rather then expanding. this magnet can be intensified when neccesary!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
