satellite de-orbiting by means of electrodynamic tethers part i: general concepts and requirements

It has been recently suggested that conductive tethers, besides other applications, may be effective for the de-orbiting of satellites at the end of their operational life. In this paper we give a preliminary evaluation of this capability with respect to a well-defined tether system and using the ex...
