Inferring solar-wind plasma structures from sparse probe trajectories using recurrent reduced-order learning

Maryam Reza, Farbod Faraji

In space plasma studies, spacecraft measurements often provide time histories of the solar-wind plasma. However, many heliospheric plasma processes are organized over spatial scale…

Influence of the magnetic field's curvature on the radial-azimuthal dynamics of a Hall thruster plasma discharge with different propellants

Maryam Reza, Farbod Faraji, Aaron Knoll

The topology of the applied magnetic field is an important design aspect of Hall thrusters. For modern Hall thrusters, the field topology most often features curved lines with a co…

Effects of magnetic field gradient and secondary electron emission on instabilities and transport in an ExB plasma configuration

Maryam Reza, Farbod Faraji, Aaron Knoll

Today, partially magnetized low-temperature plasmas (LTP) in an ExB configuration, where the applied magnetic field is perpendicular to the self-consistent electric field, have imp…
