THE ELECTROMAGNETIC PINCH EFFECT FOR SPACE PROPULSION

THE ELECTROMAGNETIC PINCH EFFECT FOR SPACE PROPULSION [electronic resource]

The phenomenon of the electromagnetic pinch effect is used to accelerate ionized gases for space propulsion. Electrical energy, initially stored in capacitors, is discharged across two nozzle shaped electrodes wherein the radial pinch is converted to axial motion of the effected gases instead of con...
