Experimental Studies of Spacecraft Plasma Interactions: Facility Characterization and Initial Measurements
The objectives of this thesis are to characterize the plasma environment of a new vacuum chamber facility at Virginia Tech and to perform initial measurements of plasma flow field for studying spacecraft-plasma interactions using this facility. An argon plasma environment was created using a hot fi...
