Flight Ion and Hall Thrusters 435 thruster in station keeping applications [13] is shown in Table 9-4. A schematic of a generic Kaufman thruster was shown in Chapter 4, and a photograph of the T5 thruster is shown in Fig. 9-5. The T5 thruster generates an 1100-V, 0.329-A xenon ion beam that produces about 18 mN of thrust at a nominal Isp of 3200 s with a total efficiency of about 55%. The RITA system uses a RIT-10 rf ion thruster originally developed [14] at the University of Giessen in Germany and manufactured [15] for Artemis by Astrium in Germany. The performance of the RIT-10 thruster in the station keeping application [15] is shown in Table 9-5. A schematic of a generic rf thruster was shown in Chapter 4, and a photograph of the RIT-10 rf ion thruster from [16] is shown in Fig.9-6. The RIT-10 thruster generates a 1500-V, 0.234-A xenon ion beam that produces 15 mN of thrust at an Isp of 3400 s and a total efficiency in excess of 51%. The Institute of Space and Astronautical Science of the Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency (JAXA) launched four of the 10 ECR ion thrusters on the Hayabusa (formerly Muses-C) spacecraft [17] in 2003. These 10-cm grid- diameter thrusters are successfully providing primary propulsion for an asteroid sample return mission that will return to Earth in 2010. The thruster [18,19] uses 4.2-GHz microwaves to produce the main plasma in the thruster and drive the electron neutralizer. A schematic drawing of the thruster was shown in Chapter 4. The performance of the 10-cm ECR thruster is shown in Table 9-6, and a photograph of the thruster from Ref. 20 is shown in Fig. 9-7. The 10-cm ECR ion thruster generates a 1500-V, 0.136-A xenon ion beam that produces 8.1 mN of thrust at an Isp of 3090 s and a total efficiency of 36%. The most recent launch of a new ion thruster was by the Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency (JAXA), who launched four 20mN-class Kaufman ion thrusters developed by Mitsubishi Electric Corporation on the Engineering Test Satellite VIII (ETS-VIII) [21] in 2006. The 12-cm grid-diameter Kaufman thrusters provide north-south station keeping for this large geosynchronous communications satellite. The performance of the 12-cm Kaufman thruster [22] is shown in Table 9-7, and a photograph of the thruster from [23] is shown in Figure 9-8. At its nominal operating condition, the thruster generates a 996-V, 0.432 to 0.480-A xenon ion beam that produces 20.9 to 23.2 mN of thrust at an Isp of 2402 to 2665 sec and a total efficiency of about 46 to 50%. There are a significant number of new ion thrusters in development world-wide for prime propulsion and satellite station keeping applications. Since these thrusters have not flown as of this date, they will not be covered in detail and only mentioned here.
