   Ion Drive using Modified Bench top Fusio

   I have a design for a Bench top fusion Generator.  Like   
   most attempts it will likely leak.  It uses a Penning Trap   
   for a cylindrical vessel.  Think of a simple wire round   
   solenoid type of affair. Super conducting of course.   
      
   At each end are mirrors.  I am ignorant of the exact   
   valid mirror field. But believe whatever is attempted   
   it will leak in relation to the energy density in   
   containment.   
      
   So why not use it as an ion drive.  Maybe having   
   one mirror be deviated for preferred ion emission.   
   Making a mirrors the challenge.   
      
   I do have a focusing Linac design. In the old days   
   a simple solenoid accelerator was attempted.   
   My magnets are confidential.
