I've had a ten minute look through microwave thrusters on scholar.google.com constrained to 2013 and later and found enough of interest to suggest either: - there isn't a paper on the behaviour, (e.g. search terms inadequate), or - the work that has been done has been misinterpreted by the popular media. The number of papers was pleasing. There is quite a bit of work being done in the field. I look forward to clarity and further papers, and properly written experimental results. --=20 James Cameron http://quozl.linux.org.au/ --=20 http://www.piclist.com/techref/piclist PIC/SX FAQ & list archive View/change your membership options at http://mailman.mit.edu/mailman/listinfo/piclist .
