Abstract
Eagle Harbor Technologies, Inc. (EHT) and the University of Michigan (UM) made the first direct performance measurement of a continuously operating Rotating Magnetic Field (RMF) – Field-Reversed Configuration (FRC) Thruster using a standard inverted-pendulum thrust stand in space-like conditions. EHT developed the power system, and UM constructed the RMF-FRC thruster and conducted measurements in their Large Vacuum Test Facility.
