It could accelerate a vessel moving away from the sun and decelerate it when approaching a distant star at the end of an interstellar journey.
Thrust vectoring and steering could be achieved by manipulating the dipole tilt for any type of magnetic sail.
[3] The solar wind is a stream of energetic charged particles released from the upper atmosphere of a star, such as the Sun, called the corona.
This plasma mostly consists of electrons, protons and alpha particles with kinetic energy between 0.5 and 10 keV.
[5] Phased antennas operating in the radio frequency range produce a rapidly rotating magnetic field.
