McInnes, C.R. (2004) Delivering fast and capable missions to the outer solar system. Advances in Space Research, 34 (1). pp. 184-191. ISSN 0273-1177 (http://dx.doi.org/10.1016/j.asr.2003.02.063)

Abstract

Concepts for science missions to the outer solar system and beyond traditionally suffer from the multiple burdens of long trips times, power starved payloads and a severe communications bottleneck for data returns. This paper will consider the use of solar sail propulsion to address some, or even all of these issues in the mid to farterm.
