Plasma instability can be a solution for magnetic nozzle plasma thrusters
An image of cross-field electron transport and plasma detachment from the magnetic nozzle. Credit: Kazunori Takahashi A research group has demonstrated that spontaneously excited plasma waves can be the solution to a problem long associated with magnetic nozzle plasma thrusters, shattering conventional thinking. Details of their research were published in the journal Scientific reports on …
