Presets
A linear state-space system ẋ = Ax has a character set by the eigenvalues of A. Negative real parts spiral or decay to the origin (stable); positive parts fly outward; imaginary parts add rotation. The phase portrait reveals it all at a glance. Educational tool.

Governing equation
Reading this result: Complex eigenvalues with negative real part: trajectories spiral inward, oscillating while decaying to the origin — a stable, ringing system.
