Combination of cosmic electromagnetic fields (a cosmic source of energy), static magnetic fields (a ‘restoring force’ source in a flight vehicle converter), and cosmic charged particles (which have a general cosmic presence) can be used to accelerate charged particles to high energies in a limited space of a flight vehicle. The expulsion of such energetic particles by a chaotic gun effect can represent a reaction force which may be more reasonable than a ‘vacuum propeller reaction force’. In quantum terms, we can assert that the Comptonization of ubiquitous cosmic (real) photons can be realized by a second order Fermi (stochastic) acceleration mechanism which extracts energy from electromagnetic fields. The nonlinear interaction between the relativistic charged cosmic particles and the composite field (cosmic photons and vehicle static magnetic field) represent the starting point for the present paper. The accelerating process is described by a set of coupled nonlinear equations for electromagnetic fields and charged particles, which are similar with the equations for three coupled oscillators. The competition between these two (restoring and accelerating) forces can lead to a chaotic gun effect (i.e. a sudden expulsion of a particle from the system in a certain direction) which represents an energetic transfer of energy between charged particles and cosmic photons. Indeed, following numerical experiments, we demonstrate that there exists a continuous exchange of energy between cosmic photons and charged particles in the presence of a suitable chosen vehicle magnetic field. The advantages of the present method of obtaining a reaction force by a chaotic gun effect are represented by the possibilities of computer simulations and also of laboratory experiments.
