Second Magnetoplasmadynamic Thruster Workshop

Conference ·
OSTI ID:6680744
The meeting focused on progress made in establishing performance and lifetime expectations of magnetoplasmadynamic (MPD) thrusters as functions of power, propellant, and design; models for the plasma flow and electrode components; viability and transportability of quasi-steady thruster testing; engineering requirements for high power, long life thrusters; and facilities and their requirements for performance and life testing. Separate abstracts have been prepared for articles from this report.
