  3. 3. Estimating Charging on a Sounding Rocket Experiment Using Plasma Simulation

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för elektroteknik och datavetenskap (EECS)

    Author : Emelie Modin; [2020]
    Keywords : Current Voltage Characteristics; SoundingRocket; SPIDER-1; SPIDER-2; Aurora; SPIS;

    Abstract : The aim of this project is to model current volt-age characteristic curves for different plasma conditions (i.eelectron density, electron temperature, ion temperature andplasma potential) that can be found in active auroras. This isdone by simulating the charging of a FFU with a connectedLangmuir probe in the software SPIS. READ MORE
