The tutorial model proposes both dual 3D magnetostatic formulations:
the magnetic vector potential formulation with spanning-tree gauging,
and the scalar magnetic potential formulation.
The later is rather simple in this case since, as there are no conductors,
the known coercive field hc[] is the only source field "hs" one needs
to represens the magnetic field:

h = hs - grad phi , hs = -hc.

Exactly like we computed the heat flux "q(S)" through a surface "S"

the magnetic force acting on a rigid body in empty space can be evaluated
