A helical railgun is a type of electromagnetic projectile launcher that utilizes a helical (spiral) configuration to accelerate projectiles. Like traditional railguns, which use electromagnetic fields generated by electric currents to propel a projectile along two parallel conductive rails, a helical railgun employs a different geometry to achieve similar results. ### Key Features: 1. **Design**: The helical railgun's rails are arranged in a spiral or helix rather than in a straight line.
