Characterization of a Low Current LaB6 Heaterless Hollow Cathode with Krypton Propellant
A first-generation LaB6 heaterless hollow cathode with a flat-plate anode is experimentally investigated. The cathode is characterized using krypton as propellant at varying flow rates, discharge currents and cathode-anode distances. Voltage probes, used to make direct voltage measurements in the ig...
