This was written up nearly a year ago at NextBigFuture. The link provided doesn't work anymore. It combines MHD Airbreathing with IEC Fusion (polywell). Here's a link to the discussion of fusion propulsion.
Well, back one moment to this idea of muon catalyzed fusion. It doesn't appear to be a likely candidate for rocket propulsion though. It seems that you need a mechanism for making the muons and that doesn't seem likely in space.
I had a speculation yesterday about muons being used is Rossi -Focardi experiments. Based upon factors like this, it doesn't appear likely.
