Hi,
I’m trying to model a thruser-cathode system with SPIS 5.1.4.
The thruster emits Xe+ ions with a certain speed while the cathode emits electrons moving due to thermal velocity.
I have some questions about the ion-electron interactions:
- is possible to simulate the interaction of electrons and Xe+ ions with SPIS?
- is necessary to change the parameters of the section Interaction Volume to simulate this interaction?
