Electric propulsion: comparisons between different concepts

Plasma Physics and Controlled Fusion, 2011
Electric propulsion (EP) is nowadays a mature technology used on board space vehicles. In comparison with chemical thrusters, electric thrusters can advantageously accelerate propellant at a high exhaust speed. The corresponding propellant mass saving makes essential the utilization of electric thrusters for low thrust and long duration missions ...
