The vast majority of ion thrusters rely on gaseous propellants, however. A schematic of an gridded electrostatic ion thruster. Wear on the grids over time limits the life of these thrusters.
Hollow cathodes are used as part of both Hall effect and gridded ion thrusters, which are some of the most common forms of electric propulsion in use today. The operation of hollow cathodes, despite ...
The DLR-Institute of Aerodynamics and Flow Technology performs a lifetime qualification test of ArianeGroup’s radio frequency gridded ion thruster RIT2x in the Electric Space Propulsion Test Facility ...

The NEXT edition gridded ion thrusters used on DART can produce 6.9 kW thruster power. The thrusters use electricity to accelerate a xenon propellant at speeds of up to 90,000 mph, thereby moving ...
Get Instant Summarized Text (Gist) Simulations of electric ion thrusters have been validated through experiments, addressing challenges in predicting thruster lifespan due to chamber wall effects ...
