“…Instead, the divergent MN is an electromagnetic device from the momentum point of view: magnetic thrust is achieved thanks to the diamagnetic drift developing on electrons [367], [369], [370], [371], [372]. These drifts form azimuthal current loops, of diamagnetic character, which induce a magnetic field acting on the thruster coils [373], [429], [430]. This coil/plasma configuration is equivalent to the basic setup of two wire loops with counterstreaming electric currents (of different magnitude), which repel each other, as shown in Fig.…”
