Magnetic nozzle performance in a cluster of helicon plasma thrusters

A numerical study of the plasma dynamics in a Helicon Plasma Thrusters’ (HPT) cluster is presented. For the first time in the literature, the three-dimensional (3D) plasma dynamics occurring in the plume of a HPTs’ cluster is analyzed. The physical investigation relies on ProPic, a 3D particle-in-ce...
