Abstract

The work investigates the effect of new components on the Helicon plasma thruster under development at CISAS (Center of Studies and Activities for Space, University of Padova) propulsion laboratory;then define a method to calculate a correction coefficient for Faraday cup that may be used to compute thrust.Eventually, a suggestion for improve for actual Faraday cup is given
