ABSTRACT:
A plasma accelerator (300) is disclosed that has three separate sections of coils (301-316) disposed outside the plasma chamber (321). The separate sections of coils include an initial discharge section (309-316), an acceleration section (303-308), and a nozzle section (301-302). Each section of coils is driven by signals of a different frequency to more efficiently discharge and accelerate a plasma in the plasma accelerator (300).
