20230375302 · 2023-11-23 ·

A magnetic projectile launching system includes an accelerator having a plurality of electromagnets positioned around a circular accelerator pathway. Each electromagnet includes a frame supporting a core having a passageway surrounding the pathway. A conductive coil is wound around an outer surface of the core. A plurality of capacitors are mounted on the frame and electrically connected to the coil. The capacitors are operable to switch from an on-state to an off-state sequentially to form a moving magnetic field which accelerates a projectile around the pathway. At least one of the electromagnets is a movable electromagnet operable to be moved from a first position to a second position. When the movable electromagnet is in the first position, the accelerator is operable to accelerate the projectile around the pathway. When the movable electromagnet is in the second position, the accelerator is operable to launch the projectile tangentially from the pathway.

Relay based system to launch a projectile

A series of the relay of the electromagnetic launcher with a gun and a floating launch platform to launch projectiles in space, wherein the projectile is accelerated along a path using electromagnetic force until the projectile reaches a desired direction and position. The direction of the path is determined by orienting the path in the desired direction using a catcher. the catcher and rail gun projectile as high above as possible, coming close to near space. When the said projectile will reach the last platform, it will be launched by the railgun and ignite its rocket engine to take the payload in space or as required to eliminate the need for large rocket boosters to launch the projectile.

Apparatuses and methods for a superconducting explosive

In an example, an apparatus includes a cryogenic container configured to store a cryogenic fluid, a superconducting coil disposed within the cryogenic container, and an outer casing surrounding at least a lateral surface area of the cryogenic container. The apparatus is configured such that, while the superconducting coil is carrying a current, is in a superconducting state, and is being cooled by the cryogenic fluid stored in the cryogenic container, an outward magnetic pressure is imposed on the cryogenic container and the outer casing. The cryogenic container and the outer casing are configured to withstand the outward magnetic pressure for at least a predetermined period of time, including while the superconducting coil is being charged to the superconducting state. An occurrence of a trigger event while the outward magnetic pressure is being imposed causes the cryogenic container and the outer casing to expand and burst into radially-dispersed fragments.
