Hi Felix,

You can look at the following sites

Nuke propulsion - Talks about dreams of the Orion and Helios Projects.
http://www.fas.org/nuke/space/links.htm

Stuff on various forms of electric space propulsion
http://www.islandone.org/Propulsion/

Have you tried doing a search on some of the search engines?

There's an old book in our Department library called:

Physics of electric propulsion by Jahn, Robert G.

It was written in 1967. I'm not sure what's up to date, but I'm sure the
local library (or more likely the University Library) may have something.

*peace*

-Robert
