Pulsed plasma thruster
A pulsed plasma thruster (PPT), also known as a plasma jet engine, is a form of electric spacecraft propulsion.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=NASA Glenn Research Center PPT )〕 PPTs are generally considered the simplest form of electric spacecraft propulsion and were the first form of electric propulsion to be flown in space, having flown on two Soviet probes (Zond 2 and Zond 3) starting in 1964.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=University of Surrey PPT Thesis Abstract )〕 PPTs are generally flown on spacecraft with a surplus of electricity from abundantly available solar energy.
== Operation ==

Most PPTs use a solid material (normally PTFE, more commonly known as Teflon) for propellant, although a minority use liquid or gaseous propellants. The first stage in PPT operation involves an arc of electricity passing through the fuel, causing ablation and sublimation of the fuel. The heat generated by this arc causes the resultant gas to turn into plasma, thereby creating a charged gas cloud. Due to the force of the ablation, the plasma is propelled at low speed between two charged plates (an anode and cathode). Since the plasma is charged, the fuel effectively completes the circuit between the two plates, allowing a current to flow through the plasma. This flow of electrons generates a strong electromagnetic field which then exerts a Lorentz force on the plasma, accelerating the plasma out of the PPT exhaust at high velocity.〔 The pulsing occurs due to the time needed to recharge the plates following each burst of fuel, and the time between each arc. The frequency of pulsing is normally very high and so it generates an almost continuous and smooth thrust. While the thrust is very low, a PPT can operate continuously for extended periods of time, yielding a large final speed.
The energy used in each pulse is stored in a capacitor.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Plasma thrusters could double the lifetime of mini satellites )〕 By varying the time between each capacitor discharge, the thrust and power draw of the PPT can be varied allowing versatile use of the system.〔
