Scientific paper

Investigations performed under a NASA Small Business Independent
Research (SBIR) Phase I Award have shown that hydrogen propellant
heating from fusion energy on the order of a few 1014 W/kg,
corresponding to power absorption rates of a few GW, can produce on the
order of 100 kN of thrust with a 0.5 kg/s propellant mass flow rate. .
