Direction for the Future - Successive Acceleration of Positive and Negative Ions Applied to Space Propulsion
Electrical space thrusters show important advantages for applications in outer space compared to chemical thrusters, as they allow a longer mission lifetime with lower weight and propellant consumption. Mature technologies on the market today accelerate positive ions to generate thrust. The ion beam...
