Object: How does a lightsaber work?
HEY , NO OFFENCE!!!!
"The lightsaber's jewels focus the power cell's enemy charge into a
tight parallel beam that emerges from the blade emitter as a vibrant
blade of pure energy. The blade is a closed energy loop. Its amplitude
determines when the energy beam arcs back to the negatively charged
high-energy flux aperture that rings the outer edge of the lightsaber's
concave disk. The power cell can last to years because it is fed by the
energy that enters the flux aperture; the weapon loses energy only when
the blade makes contact with another object."
What is a closed energy loop ?
Please post !

I still wonder if it might be possible to do a light-sabre like effect,
using beams of light dense enough to actually gravitationally interact.
They'd have to be at an angle to each other, so they could, maybe some
sort of spiral effect.
However, this would not produce a light saber, as the amount of energy
needed is many, many orders of magnitude over what the observed effects
are.

What arrangement of magnets could make a magnetic bottle outside of the
volume of the magnets and that has a shape like a saber?
I think it could be done if you add enough multipole moments, but the
magnet assembly would have to be at least as wide as the blade is long.
