    Abstract : Electric Propulsion (EP) is widely acknowledged as a crucial technology for future space missions, offering significant propellant savings and enabling exploration of planetary missions with smaller spacecraft (s/c). For precise attitude control of these smaller spacecraft, Field Emission Electric Propulsion (FEEP) has emerged as a favorable option due to its exceptional thrust controllability. READ MORE

  2. 2. Investigation on how additive manufacturing with post-processing can be used to realize micronozzles

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Ångström Space Technology Centre (ÅSTC)

    Author : Alan Bugurcu; [2022]
    Keywords : additive manufacturing; micronozzle; micro rocket nozzle; laser-powered powder bed fusion; electropolishing; supersonic micronozzle; supersonic micro rocket nozzle; titanium alloy; titanium-64; Ti-Al6-V4;

    Abstract : This is predominantly a qualitative study on the manufacturing of micronozzles with an additive manufacturing (AM) technique, namely the laser-powered powder bed fusion (PBF-LB).  Manufacturing of micronozzles with standard microelectromechanical system technology often results in 2.

  3. 3. Optimization of e-beam and x-ray target geometry of a solid x-ray anode source

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Materialfysik

    Author : Giacomo Luani; [2021]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : The X-ray tube is one of the most common types of X-ray sources, which is widely used in research laboratories and industry. Electrons are accelerated towards a metallic target to generate X-ray photons, thus creating a significant thermal load on the metal. READ MORE
