The concept of an accelerator using a travelling magnetic wave that acts on magnetized projectiles is discussed. Although superconductors potentially may be good projectile material, their low critical temperature makes them unsuitable. Among ferromagnetic materials, dysprosium seems superior. For stable suspension and guidance, a high conductivity (preferrably superconducting) guide sheet is necessary. Magnetic field gradients of 109 A/m2 travelling at 106 m/s should be achievable using present state-of-the-art components; resulting accelerations are greater than 500 km/s2. A linear accelerator for final speeds of 50 km/s needs a length of 2.5 km.
