Gamma Ray Overrun: Why Magnetospheres Fail Under Extreme Radiation in the MID/QC Framework

Classical electromagnetism treats the magnetosphere as a magnetic shield that deflects charged particles, yet this interpretation fails to explain why magnetospheres collapse under gamma‑ray exposure from supernovae or gamma‑ray bursts. In the MID/QC framework, the magnetosphere is reinterpreted as a coherence‑gradient routing system sculpted by polarized submergent quanta. Charged particles couple to these coherence channels, but gamma rays propagate on the substrate’s oscillation crest and therefore bypass the routing architecture entirely. This paper develops the substrate‑level mechanism for magnetospheric failure, unifying magnetic protection, atmospheric stripping, and radiation vulnerability within a single coherence‑mechanics framework.
