Plume capture and Xenon Propellant Capture

Heavy xenon gas propellant capture from a Solar Ion or other Radiation Ion space craft is possible.  To create propulsion, heavy xenon gas ions are transferred across a nozzle geometry and zapped with a charge that accelerates the xenon ion across a plasma arc which then neutralizes the ion.
