MPD thruster that accelerates electrodeless plasma and electrodeless plasma accelerating method using MPD thruster

Electrodeless plasma is supplied to a space between a cathode and an anode such that a resistivity in the space is reduced. The electrodeless plasma is accelerated with Lorentz force induced by a radial direction magnetic field component and an axial direction magnetic field component that are gener...

More Information
Summary:Electrodeless plasma is supplied to a space between a cathode and an anode such that a resistivity in the space is reduced. The electrodeless plasma is accelerated with Lorentz force induced by a radial direction magnetic field component and an axial direction magnetic field component that are generated in the space, and current in the space.
