Abstract: Abstract Application of idealized constant-specific-impulse, constant-thrust electric thruster performance models or curve-fitted polynomials is quite common for spacecraft trajectory design. However, incorporation of realistic performance models of multi-mode electric thrusters leads to notable challenges, and… read more here.
