Using water as fuel to travel through space—this is the challenge of WET – Water-based Electric Thrusters, a new research project under Horizon Europe coordinated by the University of Bologna.

Hall thrusters, a key space technology for missions like SpaceX's Starlink constellation and NASA's Psyche asteroid mission, are high-efficiency electric propulsion devices using plasma technology*.

As a result, plasma energy efficiency decreased by up to 35% despite the increase in the tip number. These results stress the key role of the threshold distance. It is vital for better energy ...

To achieve higher spraying speed and better Cu coating quality, this article deeply studied the method of accelerated plasma spraying (APS) based on electromagnetic pulse welding (EMPW). A ...

A Hall thruster is a high-efficiency propulsion device using plasma that is used for various difficult space missions, such as SpaceX's constellation satellites, Starlink and NASA's asteroid probe, ...

Pulsed field ablation (PFA) is a novel nonthermal energy source that uses electroporation via microsecond-scale, high-voltage electrical field to create cell necrosis. PFA has the potential of being ...
