An Instrument for Experimental Secondary Electron Emission Investigations, with Application to the Spacecraft Charging Problem
Secondary electron emission (SEE) and incident-particle backscattering are important processes accompanying the impact of energetic electrons and ions on surfaces. The phenomena play a key role in the buildup of electrical charge on spacecraft surfaces, and are therefore of particular interest to sc...
