[QUOTE]Originally posted by Peregrinus: [QB] If the Enterprise-D M/ARA is in any way indicative of what came before, you're still coming at it the wrong way round. First, you had a massive uncontrolled explosion, now you're positing a 'trickle' theory. On the Enterprise, and maybe the Phoenix, for however much it matters, a lot of matter and just enough antimatter to produce a lot of energetic plasma get pumped into the reaction chamber -- and keep getting pumped in until the power transfer conduits are up to peak operating pressure. Then the ratio and amount of reactants gets re-scaled to keep the system at pressure, and to keep generating however much power is needed. All the plasma is for is to carry the high levels of electromagnetic energy from the reaction chamber to the coils. The plasma itself is just ionized Deuterium. --Jonah [/QB][/QUOTE]
