LABORATORY PROCEDURES ION AUGMENTATION EXPERIMENTS

Abstract

The conduct of the experimental analysis of electron seeding techniques is described. The purpose of this presentation is to clarify the experimental techniques used and to detail the mathematical procedures necessary for analysis and interpretation of the data. The basic purpose of the experiments is twofold: first, quantitative empirical definition of the performance of electron augmenters, both ablative and rocket motor types, when subjected to a range of conditions which will affect their performance; second, an estimate of the important processes and their rates which determine the rate of electron disappearance in flow subsequent to their generation.
