An Electrometer Design and Characterization for a CubeSat Neutral Pressure Instrument

Neutral gas pressure measurements in low Earth orbit (LEO) can facilitate the monitoring of atmospheric gravity waves, which can trigger instabilities that severely disrupt radio frequency communication signals. The Space Neutral Pressure Instrument (SNeuPI) is a low-power instrument detecting neutr...
