First Principles Calculations of Nitro Compounds with the A1 (111) Surface. DoD UGC, 10-14 Jun 02, Austin, TX

Abstract

The objective of the research is to identify, develop and transition new propellants and advanced concepts for propulsion applications, such as hydrocarbon fuels for liquid boost, liquid and solid oxidizers for boost and upper stages, monopropellants for spacecraft and upper stages, cryogenic propellants for upper stages and laser light craft for microsatellite and other applications.
