Scientific paper

Inertial-electrostatic-fusion (IEF) devices using polyhedral magnetic fields for electrostatic potential well confinement of ions offer light-weight sources of large thermal and electrical power from clean p+11B fusion reactions. Application to direct heating offers propulsion system thrust/mass ratios 100-1000x larger than other advanced concepts in the specific impulse range of 1500
