PhD thesis: Analysis of the wave-plasma ineraction in electrodeless plasma thrusters

Pedro Jiménez has successfully defended this PhD thesis “Analysis of the wave-plasma ineraction in electrodeless plasma thrusters”. Pedro’s work included significant contributions to the ZARATHUSTRA project, the most important being his 2 publications “Analysis of a cusped helicon plasma thruster discharge“ and “An implicit, conservative electrostatic particle-in-cell algorithm for paraxial magnetic nozzles“.

We congratulate Pedro for his achievement! The final thesis will soon be available online.
