VIC design session v53: best candidate (Q=25.0, 303.9kHz)

Sweep: Pair a raised C_eff (more cells / larger electrode area, swept elsewhere) with a modest-to-higher choke L to pull f_r in-band while recovering sub-amp displacement-dominated current; finer grid near the adopted 0.1mH best plus new 0.6-2.5mH territory, co-varying turns/AWG to hold coil Q and keep Td in the 80-250 window.

Cell: 18mm rod in 34.0mm tube × 25mm, 8 cell(s) parallel → C_eff = 1.37nF, bulk water R = 10389Ω. Water/electrodes (Randles): 2ppm Na+ @ 25°C, surface ×1 → λ_D 53nm, C_dl 97.0µF, cell series R 14.1Ω, displacement current 96.5%, breakdown margin ×1000+. Vapor-film discharge (CGDE onset, 300V across 0.1mm film): regime constants-out-of-range, film Paschen 719V, 120 Td — INSIDE the 3-6 eV cold-chemistry window. Per-molecule (series micro-capacitor chain): 29.63M molecules across 8.00mm → 10.13 µV/molecule (polarization (µV band)). Chokes: 2 × 0.0001H (50 turns, AWG 22, 6m wire, AC R 0.6Ω each). At resonance f_r = 303.89kHz: Xl = 382Ω, Xc = 382Ω, tank Q = 25.0, coil Q = 316.2. Cell voltage 300V from 12V drive (×25.0), series current 786.2mA. VIOLATIONS: resonance 303.9kHz outside practical 1-100kHz band Score 0.271.
