The MAID system stands for Mass Accelerator using Imploded Discharges. It is designed to accelerate masses of a few grams to velocities of about 107cm/s and is based on the fact that plasmas can achieve velocities in that range using very simple pulse power technology. The plasma density, rho, that impacts on the moving mass and accelerates it is chosen so that the resulting pressure during plasma-solid impact should not exceed the crushing strength of the solid. Presently such a system is being tested at JAYCOR and we review here the basic concept, the driving mechanisms, and the features of the system. Recent experiments performed at the Naval Research Laboratory which provide data supporting the feasibility of the MAID concept will also be discussed.
