Abstract: The full adiabatic theory is used to describe wave propagation in a warm magnetoplasma for frequencies around the plasma frequency and the upper hybrid resonance frequency. By comparison ...

The Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO) has hit a major milestone by successfully conducting a 1,000-hour life test of its 300mN (millinewton) Stationary Plasma Thruster. The groundbreaking ...

Florida-based firm Miles Space has demonstrated a water-fueled electric thruster with very low power demands. The company tested its technology on a European satellite in September 2024.

ISRO has announced the successful completion of a 1,000-hour life test on its 300mN (millinewton) Stationary Plasma Thruster that is developed for induction in the Electric Propulsion System of ...

Ulstein Maritime Ltd. in Canada has developed a new version of its successful series of deck-mounted Z-drive thrusters, and has added another fixed pitch retractable thruster to its range.

Using AI-driven genetic algorithms, the company optimized the thruster’s design for maximum efficiency.
