A Hall thruster is a high-efficiency propulsion device using plasma that is used for various ... The artificial neural network ensemble model operates as a digital twin model that can predict ...

When [Jay Bowles] demoed his first-generation ion thruster on Plasma Channel, the resulting video picked up millions of views and got hobbyists and professionals alike talking. While ionic lifters ...

In the electric propulsion community, two computational methods have been previously developed to predict thruster performance and model plasma behavior. Fluid methods assume a distribution function ...

Gridded electrostatic ion thrusters are one of the more popular designs, where the propellant gas is bombarded with electrons to form an ionized plasma. A set of gridded electrodes are then ...

TASS/. Development tests of the SPD-230 high-power stationary plasma thruster have been completed, Director of the Fakel design bureau Gennady Abramenkov told TASS. "We have completed development ...

With the recent investment, Magdrive also plans to build a U.K. manufacturing facility and conduct on-orbit tests of high-power electric plasma thrusters. A Magdrive Rogue thruster is scheduled to ...
