"A Cavalcade Of Chemical Rocket. Abbreviated Edition." provides numerous examples of chemical rockets and associated fuels.
Included within are examples of conjectured chemically powered spacecraft able to obtain hyper-relativistic velocities.
The book also covers more down to Earth chemical rocket scenarios in contexts that may be realized this century. Accordingly, chemical rocket systems capable of attaining mildly relativistic velocities are proposed.
Numerous tables and graphs are included within providing a broad range of scenarios such as for mass-ratios, fractional velocities of light, and Lorentz factors.
The book provides numerous step-by-step calculations and formulations many of which are pleasantly relatively simple but with far-reaching ramifications.
This book ventures into more or less new conceptual themes by conjecturing how chemical powered spacecraft may attain velocities as great as light-speed with associated infinite Lorentz factors.
Additionally, the book affirms that relativistic interstellar space flight can be obtained using chemical energy as one of multiple but principally enabling energy forms. So, theoreticians and engineers alike as well as policy makers and the general public adverse to nuclear power applications for space travel can appreciate the theme of this book.
It is my hope that upon careful reading of this book, the reader will come away with a new appreciation for what chemical rockets, and more generally, chemical powered spacecraft can accomplish.
