Description
Space launches have evoked the same image for decades: bright orange flames exploding beneath a rocket as it lifts and takes off into the sky. An alternative acceleration system could change that vision, with rockets leaving their energy source on the ground. Laser Propulsion in Space: Fundamentals, Technology, and Future Missions takes readers on a comprehensive journey from a theoretical overview of the fundamentals of laser ablation to a review of current projects involving high-power CW fiber lasers and their ongoing as well as potential applications. Written by experts in the field, the mathematically sound excursus also features graphics depicting the equations' results and case studies with worked-out examples, making of this book an invaluable reference source for students, researchers, and professional engineers in a number of complementary fields.
