Synopsis
Throughout most of the twentieth century, electric propulsion was considered the technology of the future. Now, the future has arrived. This important new book explains the fundamentals of electric propulsion for spacecraft and describes in detail the physics and characteristics of the two major electric thrusters in use today, ion and Hall thrusters. The authors provide an introduction to plasma physics in order to allow readers to understand the models and derivations used in determining electric thruster performance. They then go on to present detailed explanations of: Thruster principles Ion thruster plasma generators and accelerator grids Hollow cathodes Hall thrusters Ion and Hall thruster plumes Flight ion and Hall thrusters Based largely on research and development performed at the Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL) and complemented with scores of tables, figures, homework problems, and references, Fundamentals of Electric Propulsion: Ion and Hall Thrusters is an indispensable textbook for advanced undergraduate and graduate students who are preparing to enter the aerospace industry. It also serves as an equally valuable resource for professional engineers already at work in the field., An up-to-date guide to the physics and technology of Ion and Hall thrusters. Explains the performance of the flight ion and Hall thrusters over the last 10 years with photographs of successful ion and Hall thrusters. Feature figures and tables showing thruster and cathode schematics, data and results.

    For the price, I may have gone a little insane in purchasing 2 bottles of this exceptional lotion...but it's been discontinued, and who knows if I'll ever find this item offered again? It's an all-time favorite, and my skin is going to enjoy every last drop of these bottles! Seller carefully packaged my order so it arrived in perfect condition, and in only 3 days! Super great service! Thanks so much! :o)

    Extremely pleased with my purchase. Item arrived as described, undamaged and on time. Parcel was well packaged for shipping. I received a super nice used vintage Cobra Classic CB radio in pristine condition at a terrific price from a great seller. The radio came complete with mic, power cord, mounting hardware and owner instruction manual. I hooked it up to my 10 amp 12 volt power supply and it performed flawlessly. Thanks CLMT Trading Company. Awesome job!
