Perspectives on Physics of ExB Discharges Relevant to Plasma Propulsion and Similar Technologies
Igor D. Kaganovich, Andrei Smolyakov, Yevgeny Raitses +22
This paper provides perspectives on recent progress in the understanding of the physics of devices where the external magnetic field is applied perpendicularly to the discharge cur…
Boundary-induced effect on the spoke-like activity in ExB plasma
Eduardo Rodriguez, Valentin Skoutnev, Yevgeny Raitses +3
The spoke instability in an Penning discharge is shown to be strongly affected by the boundary that is perpendicular to field lines. The instability is the stronges…
Scaling of Spoke Rotation Frequency within a Penning Discharge
Andrew T. Powis, Johan A. Carlsson, Igor D. Kaganovich +2
A rotating plasma spoke is shown to develop in two-dimensional full-sized kinetic simulations of a Penning discharge cross-section. Electron cross-field transport within the discha…
Particle-in-Cell Modeling of Laser Thomson Scattering in Low-Density Plasmas at Elevated Laser Intensities
Andrew T. Powis, Mikhail N. Shneider
Incoherent Thomson scattering is a non-intrusive technique commonly used for measuring local plasma density. Within low-density, low-temperature plasma's and for sufficient laser i…
