Device for accelerating a projectile has electrically charged leader loop and support unit for supporting at least one section of loop in direction opposite the direction of acceleration, where loop is provided with two overlapping sections

摘要

#CMT# #/CMT# The device has an electrically charged leader loop and a support unit for supporting at least one section of the loop in a direction opposite the direction of acceleration. The loop is provided with two overlapping sections which have current flowing through them in opposite directions. The sections have a negligible length in the direction of acceleration. #CMT#USE : #/CMT# For launching projectiles using electric charge. #CMT#ADVANTAGE : #/CMT# The device enables an impulse-like accelerating force to be imparted on the projectile. #CMT#DESCRIPTION OF DRAWINGS : #/CMT# The drawing shows a side view of the device 1 : leader loop.
