Likelihood topology and applicability limits of spatial anti-aliasing inversion for folded electron drift instability dispersion in Hall thrusters
Zilong Peng, Baisheng Wang, Zhongping Zhao +2
The electron drift instability (EDI) is widely recognized as the leading mechanism for anomalous electron transport in Hall thrusters, but its millimeter and sub-millimeter wavelen…
