“…High ion energies have also been inferred from laser-induced fluorescence (LIF) measurements of singly charged xenon ion velocities in the plume of the cathode in HERMeS thrusters. [34][35][36][37] The mean velocities correspond to energies of 15-30 eV, which are somewhat lower than most of the values measured in this experiment, with FWHM values of 21-42 eV, which are comparable to or larger than our measurements. Lopez Ortega postulated that azimuthal acceleration of ions in the cathode plume might produce high radial velocities.…”
