Ion kinetic effects and instabilities in the plasma flow in the magnetic mirror
Marilyn Jimenez, Andrei Smolyakov, Oleksandr Chapurin +1
Kinetic effects in plasma flow due to a finite ion temperature and ion reflections in a converging-diverging magnetic nozzle are investigated with collisionless quasineutral hybrid…

Fluid and hybrid simulations of the ionization instabilities in Hall thruster
Oleksandr Chapurin, Andrei Smolyakov, Gerjan Hagelaar +2
Low-frequency axial oscillations (5-50 kHz) stand out as a pervasive feature observed in many types of Hall thrusters. While it is widely recognized that the ionization effects pla…
