Kinetic Simulations of SPT and HEMP Thrusters Including the Near-Field Plume Region

The particle-in-cell (PIC) method is used to study two different ion thruster concepts-stationary plasma thrusters (SPTs) and high-efficiency multistage plasma thrusters (HEMP-Ts)-in particular, the plasma properties in the discharge chamber due to the different magnetic field configurations. Specia...
