Tapered coils system for space propulsion with enhanced thrust: a concept of plasma detachment
A concept for plasma detachment in a magnetic nozzle is developed based on the detachment region which is found to decrease with the taper angle of the coils employed in the proposed flexible three coil setup. On tapering the coils while resulting in the same cross-sectional area, the plasma plume o...
