Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Originally this search was made to collect information on the effects of sputtering on the surface properties of materials used in space vehicles. Since in this area the literature is limited, the search was expanded to include any reference related to sputtering. The types of sputtering included are cathode, ion, and particle. Sputtering as a means of depositing thin films of metals was not included. This bibliography reflects the holdings of the Technical Information Center, Lockheed Missiles + Space Company. (Author).

Download or read book A Comparison of Sputtering Models for Plasma Surface Interactions written by and published by . This book was released on 2000 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The interaction of electric propulsion plumes with spacecraft surfaces is studied in order to predict possible spacecraft contamination. For example, ions in the plume may cause surface sputtering and this sputtered material may be deposited on other surfaces. Several models exist for the sputtering of surface material by ion bombardment based on various experimental data. These models depend on the ion species and materials from the data. In order to assess the uncertainty in sputtering predictions, this paper will present a comparison of models for sputtering of spacecraft materials due to operation of Hall-effect thrusters using xenon as a propellent. How this sputtering affects the redeposition will also be examined. The sputter yield versus angle for 300eV ions hitting aluminum and silver is shown in the figure below for two models. The one labeled "R" is from Roussel et al., "Numerical Simulation of Induced Environment, Sputtering and Contamination of Satellite due to Electric Propulsion," Proc. Second European Spacecraft Propulsion Conf. 1997. The other (labeled "Y") is from Yamamura et al., "Angular Dependence of Sputtering Yields on Monatomic Solids", Institute of Plasma Physics, Nagoya University, June 1983. A 3-D plasma interaction modeling system named COLISEUM has been developed and will be used as a tool to test these models as well as others - (for example Kannenberg et al., "Validation of Hall Thruster Plume Sputter Model', 37th IPC, July 2001).

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The breakup of the Space Shuttle Columbia as it reentered Earth's atmosphere on February 1, 2003, reminded the public--and NASA--of the grave risks posed to spacecraft by everything from insulating foam to space debris. Here, Alan Tribble presents a singular, up-to-date account of a wide range of less conspicuous but no less consequential environmental effects that can damage or cause poor performance of orbiting spacecraft. Conveying a wealth of insight into the nature of the space environment and how spacecraft interact with it, he covers design modifications aimed at eliminating or reducing such environmental effects as solar absorptance increases caused by self-contamination, materials erosion by atomic oxygen, electrical discharges due to spacecraft charging, degradation of electrical circuits by radiation, and bombardment by micrometeorites. This book is unique in that it bridges the gap between studies of the space environment as performed by space physicists and spacecraft design engineering as practiced by aerospace engineers.
