Study on the influence of magnetic field on the performance of a 5 kW hall thruster

Hall thruster is a kind of plasma optics device, which is used mainly in space propulsion. To study the influence of magnetic field on the performance of a 5 kW hall thruster, a two-dimensional PIC-MCC model was built. The Bohm diffusion was modeled by using a Brownian motion instead of the Bohm col...
