Abstract

A 2D3V fully kinetic particle-in-cell code, PTpic, has been developed and applied to the Princeton 2.6cm diameter Cylindrical Hall Thruster (CHT). Converged results show good thrust and efficiency predictions and, in some cases, high amplitude oscillations whose period matches experimental measurements.
