Probe Diagnostics and Optical Emission Spectroscopy of Wave Plasma Source Exhaust
Wave plasma sources (WPSs) were first proposed in the 1970s for electric propulsion (EP), and these research and development processes culminated in the flight test in 2021 of the WPS-based thruster REGULUS. Recently, new approaches to WPS use have emerged—multiple schemes of EPs that can generate p...
