Princeton Plasma Physics Laboratory (PPPL) Colloquium

The colloquium will discuss a pilot wave model used to predict the performance of a q-thruster test article, and the origin and history of the pilot wave line of thinking will be outlined. Analysis results of a pilot wave model of the hydrogen atom will be presented and discussed. The methodology and results from a vacuum test campaign documented in a forthcoming paper (Journal of Propulsion and Power) will be presented. The discussion will be extended to detail an interferometer experimental approach, some results will be presented, and forward work outlined.
