An investigation of ion engine erosion by low energy sputtering

An investigation of ion engine erosion by low energy sputtering

Unlike chemical propulsion systems, which are fundamentally limited in performance by propellant energy density, electric propulsion devices, such as ion engines, are limited in iotal deliverable impulse by maximum propellant throughput due to engine wear. In order to perform realistic modeling o...
