New Aircraft (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781470034047)

By this book the author propose a new pulse engine which works with beam or ionic (ionic beam) pulses. With a new ionic engine one builds a new aircraft (a new ship). The principal characteristic of this kind of engine is the high power (energy) which accelerates the beam at very high energy, in circular accelerators, in modern linear accelerators (LINAC), or in both. One can use accelerators similar with the static physics accelerators (synchrotron, synchrocyclotron or isochronous cyclotron). Ionic engine (ion thruster, which accelerates the positive ions through a potential difference) is about 10 times more effective than classic system based on combustion. We can still improve the efficiency of 10-50 times if one uses positive ions accelerated in a cyclotron mounted on the ship; the efficiency can easily grow for 1000 times if the positive ions will be accelerated in a high energy synchrotron, synchrocyclotron or isochronous cyclotron (1-100 GeV). Future (ionic) engine will have mandatory a circular particle accelerator (high or very high energy). Sure that the difficulties will arise from design, but they need to be resolved step by step. We can thus increase the speed and autonomy of the ship using a less quantity of fuel. It can use synchrotron radiation (synchrotron light, high intensity beams), like high intensity (X-ray or Gamma ray) radiation, as well. In this case will be a beam engine (not an ionic engine). A linear particle accelerator (also called a LINAC) is an electrical device for the acceleration of subatomic particles. This sort of particle accelerator has many applications. It used recently as to an injector into a higher energy synchrotron at a dedicated experimental particle physics laboratory. In this, the big classic synchrotron is reduced to a ring surface (magnetic core). The design of a LINAC depends on the type of particle that is being accelerated: electron, proton or ion. It proposes using a powerful LINAC at the exit of synchrotron (especially when one accelerates electrons) to not lose energy by photons premature emission. One can use a LINAC in the entry in the Synchrotron and one at out. To use a small entrance LINAC, between him and synchrotron, one put an additional speed circuit in a stadium form. The end LINAC can be reduced if one put more end LINACs. Speaking about a new ionic engine means to speak about a new aircraft. This book (shortly) presents the actual ionic engines (called ion thrusters) and the new ionic (pulse) engines proposed by the authors. This new aircraft will can accelerate directly, without an additional combustion engine and without gravity assists from other planets. The compact engine, tightly closed, does not need air (oxygen). The ship passes through clouds of dust without any problems. The passage from the air into the water and vice versa can be peaceful or even accelerated, without any problems. Increasing more the energy (and also the impulse) can reach the necessary forces and acceleration (the growth will need to be very high, 100 PeV-1000 PeV). Particles energy increased can be made with accelerators circular and or modern linear. Particles energy increased will be huge and in addition will need to grow and the flow of accelerated particles (and the tor diameter; if one increases enough the flow, the necessary energy increased, will be less, 10 GeV-10 TeV). We can increase the number of particles per pulse, the number of pulses per second, and the particle energy. Immediate consequence of increasing particle energy will be the increasing of speeds and autonomy of the ship. Now we can achieve huge speeds in a very short time. The ship will pass through any atmosphere (including water) with great ease. The ship can take off or land directly. Initially one can use to ships the old forms (the old design) which adapts and the accelerator(s).
