As of 2009, Hall-effect thrusters ranged in input power levels from 1.35 to 10 kilowatts and had exhaust velocities of 10–50 kilometers per second, with thrust of 40–600 millinewtons and efficiency in the range of 45–60 percent. [3] The applications of Hall-effect thrusters include control of the orientation and position of orbiting ...
SPT-140 is a solar-powered Hall-effect ion thruster, part of the SPT-family of thrusters. SPT stands for Stationary Plasma Thruster . [ 1 ] [ 2 ] Like other members of the SPT series, it creates a stream of electrically charged xenon ions accelerated by an electric field and confined by a magnetic field.
PPS-1350 is a Hall-effect thruster, a kind of ion propulsion system for spacecraft. It was used in the SMART-1 mission to the moon and one geostationary satellites: Inmarsat-4A F4. [1] [2] It creates a stream of electrically charged xenon ions accelerated by an electric field and confined by a magnetic field. [3]
HEMPT 3050 is a satellite station-keeping Ion thruster, currently selected for the use on German Heinrich Hertz satellite. It's designed to be used for two roles: orbit-rising and station-keeping . To date it's been demonstrated to operate over 9000 hours.

[88] [89] [90] As the season progressed, the player could complete in-game quests to follow Stellan, and another character called AMIE - an artificial intelligence created by The Scientist during Chapter 3 Season 3 - who had also played a part during Chapter 3 Season 4 - who is determined to find out what happened to The Scientist and the ...
Psyche is the first interplanetary mission to use Hall-effect thrusters, although not the first to use electric thrusters in general. [ 42 ] The SPT-140 (SPT stands for Stationary Plasma Thruster ) is a production line commercial propulsion system [ 3 ] that was invented in the USSR by OKB Fakel and developed by NASA's Glenn Research Center ...
AEPS is based on the 12.5 kW development model thruster called 'Hall Effect Rocket with Magnetic Shielding' (HERMeS). The AEPS solar electric engine makes use of the Hall-effect thruster in which the propellant is ionized and accelerated by an electric field to produce thrust. To generate 12.5 kW at the thruster actually takes a total of 13.3 ...
