Abstract:Hall thrusters are plasma-based devices that have established themselves as one of the most attractive and mature electric propulsion technologies for space applications. These devices often operate in a regime characterized by low frequency, large amplitude oscillations of the discharge current, which is commonly referred to as the ‘breathing mode’. The intensity of these oscillations depends on the thruster’s design and operating conditions and can reach values of the order of the average discharge current, … Show more
