Abstrakt: To launch vehicles with using of laser propulsion engines, promising direction is employing powerful Gas-dynamic Lasers (GDL) operating in a continuous mode. Russian enterprises have enough experience of creating such type of lasers. Experiments conducted with the continuous mode GDL on investigating of characteristics of Laser Propulsion (LP) at different schematics of operation processes in the LP are described in this article. The investigations are conducted by using the facility equipped with a CO2 GDL of a 10.6 μm wavelength. © 2006 American Institute of Physics [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
