This article is devoted to the presentation of a numerical model of a Helicon Plasma Thruster (HPT) which relies on: 1) the 3-D adVanced fluId dRifT diffUsion plaSma solver (3D-VIRTUS) for the ...

The plasma thruster, developed by Oxfordshire start-up Magdrive, heats tiny bits of solid metal into a hot gas to produce powerful bursts of thrust.

The existence of a theoretically predicted critical magnetic field strength for efficient plasma confinement in helicon plasma thrusters is verified experimentally in the source of a magnetic nozzle ...
