Dear reader,

I've been across the idea of nucleomotive force. This is strong nuclear equivalent of what electromotive force does with magnets, coils and electromagnets in magnetic fields.

New fresh ideas come and you may wonder why I don't write a paper on the subject, selling short in the process. The problem is that I don't have a degree in physics. My only hope is to give a hint to some new Tesla out there and be his Faust. Sort of.

New idea shows that for nucleomotive force to appear the atomic cores would have to be in highly ordered state that is near to nuclear superconductivity. Then all nuclear energy from nuclear transitions could more easily be harvested to move atom, crystal lattice and nuclear propulsion core in process. Thermal neutrons are completely undesired here, the transitions in nuclear energy ladder should be directly captive to mechanical movement just like in EMF with similar efficiency or greater (1% loss in warp drive could produce intolerable heating problems).

I hope this gives some food for little grey cells of yours.

First step would be to allow for stimulated neutron emission. The thermal neutrons usually go scattered around in all directions with same probability. Stimulated emission near nuclear superconductivity should produce "nice" neutrons which all go in the same direction and occupy same energy level. This is impulse drive and nucleomotive force (NMF) is not needed.

p = mₙ * vₙ * n

Where mₙ is mass of neutron, vₙ is speed of neutrons from emission, and n is number of neutrons which all go in the same direction.

Later development should eliminate the need for impulse from stimulated neutron emission. Step one would mean that a piece of properly cooled U-235 would emit neutrons in only one direction. Step two would avoid nuclear emission and propel U-235 (or other more suitable nuclear fuel) directly with mechanic force accelerating on expense of nuclear stairway's energies.

The intermediate thermal phase with Carnot coefficient conversion efficiency limitation is skipped in both cases.

Fuel rods would be fixed into rotating or linear motor, providing propulsion with energy of atomic bomb but with properties of electromagnetic motor based on EMF.
