 * Superfluous: which is any region of space where this field has a non zero magnitude of strength (e.g, the volume of space surrounding the esper emitting it).

Relation to Personal Reality
Reposition image? Previous 2014
 * Personal Reality is irreconcilably connected to AIM, as Personal Reality is the source of all esper abilities and phenomena that are brought into the real world. One can analyze a person's AIM diffusion field in order to figure out their Personal Reality, and in turn, one can investigate someone's personality and behavioral tendencies. Personal Reality can apparently be abused through the AIM diffusion fields, and can apparently be modified through the AIM fields. It would be apt then, to refer to the AIM diffusion fields as the conduit to which an esper's Personal Reality affects the real world, which is the manifestation of their abilities. Furthermore, since each AIM diffusion field is unique to the esper, it can be assumed that is due to the esper's Personal Reality. AIM diffusion fields are what is released by Himegami Aisa to attract vampires, it is what creates electromagnetic waves that moves the wind turbines when it is not moving when Misaka Mikoto is nearby, and it is the thin field that surrounds Accelerator.
 * When there is interference on the AIM diffusion fields, it can cause a simultaneous outbreak of RSPK Syndrome. Moreover, if an esper becomes traumatized or incredibly stressed, they may lose control of themselves and are then unable to view reality properly, which would lead to the RSPK Syndrome, the AIM diffusion fields of the esper would affect their surroundings similar to that of an earthquake.

Current 2017:
 * Personal Realities are irreconcilably connected to AIM, as Personal Realities are the source of all phenomena manifested by an esper in the real world. The analysation of a person's AIM diffusion field can be used to figure out the nature of one's Personal Reality as well as the behavioural and personality traits of the esper emitting it. Personal Realities can also be abused via an interference made to the AIM diffusion field and can also be modified through this as well. Following this, it would be apt then to say that an esper's AIM Diffusion Field is the conduit that allows an esper's Personal Reality the ability of affecting the real world; the manifestation of esper phenomena. Further more, since an AIM Diffusion field is found to be unique to the esper themselves, it can be assumed that is due to the esper's Personal Reality. Such examples of effects that AIM diffusion fields have upon the esper's surrounding world are the one's emitted by Himegami Aisa as to allow her the ability to attract vampires, the one emitted by Misaka Mikoto that allows her the ability to produce electromagnetic waves that can move nearby wind turbines and the one that acts as a thin field that surrounds Accelerator's body.
 * Despite all this, AIM diffusion fields can become unstable; when certain forms of interference are made upon an AIM diffusion field, it can lead to a simultaneous outbreak of RSPK Syndrome. Moreover, if an esper becomes so stressed or traumatized to the point of losing control over their Personal Reality (being unable to view reality properly ), that would lead to an RSPK syndrome as well where the AIM diffusion field would affect the esper's surroundings in a similar fashion to that of an earthquake.

 * Revision: In cases of RSPK Syndrome, an esper becomes stressed or traumatized to the point of being unable to view reality properly and loses control over their Personal Reality, which then affects the esper's surroundings through their AIM diffusion field in a manner similar to an earthquake. Additionally, interference to AIM diffusion fields can lead to a simultaneous outbreak of RSPK Syndrome.

Revision Assembly:

Personal Realities are irreconcilably connected to AIM, as Personal Realities are the source of esper abilities and all phenomena manifested by espers in the real world. Since an AIM diffusion field is unique to the esper emitting it, (ExtraRef) it can be assumed that this is due to the esper's Personal Reality.

In cases of RSPK Syndrome, an esper becomes stressed or traumatized to the point of being unable to view reality properly and loses control over their Personal Reality, which then affects the esper's surroundings through their AIM diffusion field in a manner similar to that of a poltergeist (hence the alternative term used to refer to the condition). Additionally, interference to AIM diffusion fields can lead to a simultaneous outbreak of RSPK Syndrome.

The connection between Personal Reality and AIM diffusion fields can be exploited in several ways. Analysis of a person's AIM diffusion field can be used to figure out the nature of their Personal Reality and in turn, investigate their personality and behavioral traits. It is also possible to influence a person's Personal Reality via interference with/to their AIM diffusion field, and at a certain level, it is apparently possible to modify a Personal Reality through it.

Following on from this, it would be apt to refer to AIM diffusion fields as a conduit through which an esper's Personal Reality affects the real world and manifests their abilities.

Relation to magic

 * Previous: AIM diffusion field is not harmful to magicians, and despite the massive diffusion field that is aggregated in Academy City, magicians are not harmed when they enter the city and are unharmed when they use magic. Moreover, even if they are a hybrid, the presence of AIM will not harm the user. However, if a magician were to use an esper ability or an esper were to use magic, they would suffer grievous injuries due to the fact that magic and esper powers operate through different laws.
 * Previous (2): This is extended if ever an aggregation of AIM diffusion is "brought out" into the world, specifically, the Imaginary Number District, which creates pressure in the area wherein it is located, making any magician overload and injure themselves.


 * In Progress: By themselves, AIM diffusion fields are not harmful to magicians.(Ref) Despite the massive aggregation of AIM diffusion fields in Academy City, magicians are not harmed when they enter the city or use magic within it.(Ref) Even if they are a hybrid, the presence of AIM by itself will not harm them.(Ref) However if an esper uses magic (or a magician somehow uses an esper ability), they would suffer injury due to the fact that magic and esper abilities operate through different, conflicting laws, leading to a damaging rejection reaction.(Ref)
 * In Progress (2): However when a major AIM diffusion field aggregation such as the Imaginary Number District is 'brought out' into the world, bringing the different laws along with it, it produces an effect similar to the aforementioned rejection reaction within the region it covers.    A pressure exerted which affects all magicians and magical items within the area covered.   Magicians will lose control of their magic, leading self-destruction,    and magic-based objects and structures would similarly collapse. The Imaginary Number District was developed in order to bring about this phenomena,  and did so with the manifestation of Fuse Kazakiri.

Artificial Angels

So far shown, artificial angels, or more precisely, artificial beings, since they do not follow the laws of any religion, are formed through the AIM diffusion fields of espers. The likes of Kazakiri Hyouka, which is molded by Aleister Crowley, and the AIM Burst, which is an aggregation of the AIM diffusion fields of the espers of the Level Upper Network, afer Kiyama Harumi lost control of it, can be referred to as Artificial Angels.
 * One type are beings which are sometimes referred to as Artificial Angels (人工天使), due to displaying similarities to conventional angels. These include traits such as a core (tethering them to the physical world when manifested), (ref: 19-4-3/5, 21-7-8?) halos and wings,  as well as residing in another, unseen 'realm like angels in heaven. Unlike those angels though, these beings don't follow the laws of any religion, instead being formed through the AIM diffusion fields, something falling within the realm of science. (Additional Ref?) Examples of these artificial angels include Kazakiri Hyouka, who was born in the Imaginary Number District and molded by Aleister Crowley,  with the angelic form Fuse Kazakiri,    and the AIM Burst, an aggregation of the AIM diffusion fields of the espers connected to the Level Upper Network, after Kiyama Harumi lost control of it.

Capabilities:
 * Artificial angels have queer powers. For example, the AIM Burst have the ability to use all the powers of the espers that are connected to the Level Upper network, whilst Kazakiri Hyouka exhibit tremendous self-regeneration and strength, among others.
 * Artificial Angels tend to possess formidable capabilities. The AIM Burst could use the abilities of every esper connected to the Level Upper Network as well as growing and regenerating while connected and with its core intact.  Kazakiri Hyouka exhibited tremendous strength and self-regeneration, and displayed even greater power as Fuse Kazakiri.

Aiwass

The most notable AIM-related being is the entity known as Aiwass, an 'angel' from the deepest layer of the world, beyond the phases of religion and magic. Similar to artificial angels such as Fuse Kazakiri, whose purpose was to have it take shape, Aiwass also requires a vast amount of AIM to manifest himself on the 'surface'. (Differences) Aiwass's power far exceeds that of Fuse Kazakiri, overwhelming Accelerator and Kamijou Touma in one-sided clashes. Due to its immense power and unique position as a being from the deepest layer of the world, it forms a key part of Aleister's anti-Magic God countermeasures and holds the potential to destroy the phases.

Awakening

Similarly, espers such as Accelerator and Kakine Teitoku, whose powers are unique and have divine properties, can Awaken and gain greater control of their AIM fields, allowing them to update the very laws of reality themselves. In Accelerator's case, his wings are an expression of his AIM diffusion field.

AIM thought being

Another type of AIM-based entity is an AIM thought being. These beings are similar to 'artificial angels' in that they are conscious existences tied to the AIM diffusion fields. They differ from 'artificial angels' in that they lack physical or visible bodies, though they are still capable of communicating. An AIM-based Shading Computer is capable of generating and sustaining an AIM thought being within the AIM diffusion fields it uses as a medium, and as long as the processor and medium that sustains the thought being exists, it can be rebooted/revived. The only example seen so far is Yakumi Hisako who became an AIM thought being by having her consciousness transferred to a Shading Computer using Academy City's AIM diffusion fields as a medium, which was also being used for Agitate Halation, with her physical body being devoured by man-eating cockroaches in order to facilitate the transfer. After becoming an existence fixed in the city's AIM diffusion fields, she sought to remove the linchpin in order to facilitate a transfer to a further medium.

AIM entities and their connection to the AIM fields:
 * Artificial angels only manifest within areas covered by the AIM diffusion fields, and have a core which tethers them to the physical world.(R12)(V6)(V19)
 * Vulnerable to influence through tampering with the fields.
 * AIM entities are closely linked to the diffusion fields. They are usually bound to them and cannot materialize in the physical world without their presence.
 * AIM entities are tied to the AIM fields and those with the ability to physically manifest themselves/can only do so where the AIM field covers/within the areas covered by the AIM fields
 * Additionally, due to the connection to the AIM fields, it is possible to manipulate them by manipulating the diffusion fields

AIM entities are closely linked to the AIM diffusion fields and usually dwell within them. (V6) Those with the ability to physically manifest themselves are usually only able to do so within areas covered by the diffusion fields.(V6, V19) Additionally, their connection with the AIM diffusion fields means that it is possible to influence their form and actions by tampering with those diffusion fields.

AIM entities and Imagine Breaker:
 * Previous: As they are merely an aggregation of AIM diffusion fields, they are most likely be able to be dispelled by the Imagine Breaker. In fact, Kazakiri Hyouka's consciousness was born out of the fear of the Imagine Breaker.
 * Revised: Being formed from aggregations of AIM diffusion fields, such entities are vulnerable to Imagine Breaker. Kazakiri Hyouka was aware that she'd be erased if she came into contact with it, and its threat played a key role in the formation of her consciousness in the first place. Yakumi Hisako's form as an AIM thought being was destroyed in a single strike and her consciousness only survived due to a secret back-up she prepared on a different medium. The effects of the Imagine Breaker on Aiwass haven't been shown, though it is apparently required to access Aiwass's core, together with Accelerator.

Principles


AIM is a weak energy that is sub/unconsciously emitted by espers. Much like how living beings radiate body heat, this energy emanates from the esper's body into their surroundings, forming what is known as an AIM diffusion field. These fields produce tiny effects on the regions they cover.

The form which an AIM diffusion field takes and the effect it has differs depending on the type of ability the esper possesses. For example, pyrokinesists produce heat, telekinetics/telekinesists exert pressure, electromasters release electromagnetic fields etc. The attraction of vampires by Deep Blood is also a likely example of this phenomena.
 * NOTE: Expand unique, similar, individual aspects

When the AIM diffusion fields of espers with the same type of ability overlap, AIM diffusion field resonance can occur, which increases their effects on the surrounding area.(tweak)

As the effects of the AIM diffusion fields are usually microscopic in scale, AIM cannot be detected by the five conventional senses. It can only be detected through the use of machines, precision measuring devices or by certain espers, either through resonance or specific abilities. However in some cases under normal circumstances, certain secondary effects resulting from the effects of the AIM diffusion fields on their surroundings can be observed. An example of this would be wind turbines turning due to the electromagnetic fields released by Misaka Mikoto.

There are a number of espers who have abilities which allow them to sense and even manipulate AIM. One notable esper of this kind is Takitsubo Rikou, whose ability AIM Stalker allows her to detect and track the AIM of espers whose AIM diffusion fields she has memorized. She also has the potential to be able to use an esper's AIM diffusion field to manipulate their ability and Personal Reality.

Due to their supernatural origin, the Imagine Breaker can nullify the parts of AIM diffusion fields it touches, and their effects with it. (Ref)(Touma only esper without one emitted)(Cite, presumption) The effects of the Imagine Breaker on the AIM diffusion fields can be used as a way to monitor its power.

Relation to Personal Reality
Personal Realities are irreconcilably connected to AIM, as Personal Realities are the source of esper abilities and all phenomena manifested by espers in the real world. Since an AIM diffusion field is unique to the esper emitting it, (ExtraRef) it can be assumed that this is due to the esper's Personal Reality.

In cases of RSPK Syndrome, an esper becomes stressed or traumatized to the point of being unable to view reality properly and loses control over their Personal Reality, which then affects the esper's surroundings through their AIM diffusion field in a manner similar to that of a poltergeist (hence the alternative term used to refer to the condition). Additionally, interference to AIM diffusion fields can lead to a simultaneous outbreak of RSPK Syndrome.

The connection between Personal Reality and AIM diffusion fields can be exploited in several ways. Analysis of a person's AIM diffusion field can be used to figure out the nature of their Personal Reality and in turn, investigate their personality and behavioral traits. It is also possible to influence a person's Personal Reality via interference with/to their AIM diffusion field, and at a certain level, it is apparently possible to modify a Personal Reality through it.

Following on from this, it would be apt to refer to AIM diffusion fields as a conduit through which an esper's Personal Reality affects the real world and manifests their abilities.

Relation to Magic
By themselves, AIM diffusion fields are not usually harmful to magicians.(Ref) Despite the massive aggregation of AIM diffusion fields in Academy City, magicians are not harmed when they enter the city or use magic within it.(Ref) Even if they are a hybrid, the presence of AIM by itself will not harm them.(Ref) However if an esper uses magic (or a magician somehow uses an esper ability), they would suffer injury due to the fact that magic and esper abilities operate through different, conflicting laws, leading to a damaging rejection reaction.(Ref-V1,V4)

When a major AIM diffusion field aggregation such as the Imaginary Number District is 'brought out' into the world, bringing the different laws along with it and disrupting the existing laws, it produces an effect similar to the aforementioned rejection reaction within the region it covers. A pressure is exerted which affects all magicians and magical items within that region. Magicians within lose control of their magic, leading self-destruction,   and magic-based objects and structures would similarly collapse. The Imaginary Number District was developed in order to bring about this phenomena, and did so with the manifestation of Fuse Kazakiri.

Research and Technology
As AIM is deeply connected to esper abilities and Personal Reality, there are many scientists and researchers, such as Kiyama Harumi, who devote themselves to studying it,   with numerous theses written on the subject,  and various facilities dedicated to such studies, like the AIM Analytic Research Center. It is also very important in the Academy City curriculum and is taught to students as early as a student's first year of middle school. Data on espers' AIM diffusion fields are stored in the Bank.

Uses
Due to their connection, AIM diffusion fields are used as a means to investigate espers' Personal Realities, personalities and behavioral traits. (1st or 3rd)

As AIM diffusion fields are a common denominator between espers, it is possible to construct brainwave networks between espers with the same brainwave patterns, such as the Level Upper Network between users of the Level Upper(Ref) and the Misaka Network between the Sisters.(Ref) As shown in the case of the latter, brainwave networks can be used as a control mechanism to guide the aggregated AIM diffusion fields.(Ref)

Since AIM diffusion fields follow the principles of, it is possible to use them as a medium for a Shading Computer. The Shading Computer requires a large amount of a suitable medium, constantly controlled and influenced, and ideally within an isolated container. With one made using AIM diffusion fields, there are several risks and effects. As even the smallest movements of the target fluid are used to perform calculations, it is possible for espers whose AIM diffusion fields are being used to influence the operations of the Shading Computer through that connection, even if they are a Level 0. Additionally, changes in pressure can flow back and affect the espers involved, potentially altering their state of mind or inputting information into them. This effect was exploited during the Agitate Halation Project to send 'revelations' and manipulate the target 'heroes. The processing power and medium of an AIM-based Shading Computer is also capable of sustaining an AIM thought being within the diffusion fields.

Counters
There have been plans to develop a restraining device to restrict the use of powers by taking advantage of the AIM diffusion fields of espers, though Shirai Kuroko states that the restraining device would be too dangerous since esper powers originate deep within the brain.

There are certain devices which are meant to interfere with AIM diffusion fields in order to disrupt the use of esper abilities within their area of effect. One example is the AIM Jammer, which emits special electromagnetic waves and diffusively reflects an esper's AIM diffusion field, causing the esper to interfere with their own power. Abilities using complex calculations are essentially prone to disruption from an AIM Jammer, and the danger of losing control and sustaining serious injury increases the more an esper requires such calculations.

STUDY developed a space-based missile weapon, designed to work in conjunction with Janie's Diffusion Ghost, intended to release transmitters for her ability into the atmosphere over Academy City and send it out of control to cause a fissive chain reaction in the AIM diffusion fields in Academy City, as a last resort to kill the city's espers during their Silent Party.

Aggregations
There are a number of effects which occur due to aggregations of AIM diffusion fields.

One important phenomena which can occur when AIM diffusion fields gather is AIM Diffusion Field Resonance. It involves espers in close proximity and with the same type of AIM diffusion field resonating with each other, which causes the effects of the AIM diffusion fields to become more prominent. Normally, this phenomena is relatively harmless and can be used by certain espers to detect others with the same ability in the vicinity. However if an overloaded esper is involved, it can cause an outbreak of RSPK Syndrome.

However the prime example of an AIM diffusion field aggregation is the Imaginary Number District–Five Elements Institution, a separate realm existing in the same location as Academy City, formed from the AIM diffusion fields of the 2.3 million espers residing there. The Imaginary Number District plays a key role in Aleister Crowley's plans, being a means which can be used to achieve his intermediary and ultimate goals.

AIM-based Entities
Another important aspect of AIM Diffusion Field aggregations is the capacity to create and maintain certain AIM-based entities. (Note denizens of Imaginary Number District and formation theory here?)

One type are beings which are sometimes referred to as Artificial Angels (人工天使), due to displaying similarities to conventional angels. These include traits such as a core (tethering them to the physical world when manifested), (ref: 19-4-3/5, 21-7-8?) halos and wings,  as well as residing in another, unseen 'realm' like angels in heaven. Unlike those angels though, these beings don't follow the laws of any religion, instead being formed through the AIM diffusion fields, something falling within the realm of science. (Additional Ref?) Examples of these artificial angels include Kazakiri Hyouka, who was born in the Imaginary Number District and molded by Aleister Crowley, with the angelic form Fuse Kazakiri,     and the AIM Burst, an aggregation of the AIM diffusion fields of the espers connected to the Level Upper Network, after Kiyama Harumi lost control of it.

Artificial Angels tend to possess formidable capabilities. The AIM Burst could use the abilities of every esper connected to the Level Upper Network as well as growing and regenerating while connected and with its core intact. Kazakiri Hyouka exhibited tremendous strength and self-regeneration, and displayed even greater power as Fuse Kazakiri.

Yakumi Hisako's form as an AIM thought being was destroyed in a single strike and her consciousness only survived due to a secret back-up she prepared on a different medium. The effects of the Imagine Breaker on Aiwass haven't been shown, though it is apparently required to access Aiwass's core, together with Accelerator.
