Overview

Before the reader becomes heavily involved with reading this book, I would like to offer a hopefully inspirational anecdote. That is, the concepts described in this book contain a little bit of the following: General Relativity, Special Relativity, Newtonian Classical Electrodynamics, Relativistic Classical Electrodynamics, Solid State Physics, Classical Relativistic Rotational Mechanics, among other aspects of modern physics. Not much is said regarding Quantum-Electro-Dynamics and Quantum-Chromo-Dynamics except what is necessary to clarify and define the issues and problems to be solved. So, if you enjoy classical physics and its applications to manned interstellar travel, you are going to likely really enjoy this book. By reading this brief introduction to the proposed technologies, you will see how complicated the engineering will be to put all the pieces together and design and fly real starships based on the subject methods of propulsion. However, for me, complication comes the sense of the whimsical. You will come to realize, if you have not already, that the behavior of intake and reactance particles, bosons and fermions alike, will need to be understood by species, kinetic energy spectrum, and momentum spectrum. It is even possible that the intake energies of the particles may need to be analyzed in real time for the spacecraft at a resolution as fine as micro-electron volts and more fine. A slight miscalculation of energy balances and power intake instabilities and the craft may be immediately ionized in a subtomic massive particle and hard gamma ray stew.
