Numerical Simulation of Spacecraft Charging Attributed to Ionospheric Plasma in Polar and Equatorial Environment
The presence of spacecraft in ionospheric plasma can change plasma properties, vice versa plasma can lead to charge buildup on spacecraft. The level of charging, through electric potential of spacecraft, initially depends on plasma density. However, simulations done on four LEO satellites, i.e. ERS...
