Comparison of Ablation Performance in Laser Lightcraft and Standardized Mini-Thruster

Experiments on laser ablation of black and white Delrin(R) with a 10.6-micron laser beam from a CO2 electric discharge laser are reported. Mass ablation and thrust generation (impulse) were accurately measured as a function of input laser energy in single-shot experiments. The efficiency of conversi...
