Yes, I can see the complexity there, which is why I'm not us-

pellet blasted into the thrust dome.

You are truly clueless. The magnetohydrodynamic injector is a pump
that injects the propellant, in this case the pellet you describe, and
the thrust dome as you call it is indeed the jet. If the jet is well
collimated your rocket is fairly efficient, if the jet is not well
collimated, it is less efficient.
