Ion Acceleration in Collective Fields at Electron Beam Injection from Spacecraft

Abstract: The phenomenon of plasma ion acceleration in the collective fields surrounding the spacecraft during electron beam injection into ionospheric plasmas at heights of about 200km is discussed. The ion acceleration results in the bombardment of a spacecraft surface with ions and high-energy atoms. At different conditions one of the following mechanisms of ion acceleration predominates: (1) in the field of vortex or nonmonotonous self-consistent potential jump, and (2) in the virtual cathode. High-energy atoms are … Show more

“…The so-called electric double layers [14][15][16][17][18][19][20][21] are known to play an important role in the processes running in the magnetospheres of planets. The double electric layer is a plasma region with a violated quasineutrality.…”
