title = "The high frequency potential oscillations near the hollow cathode in ion thrusters",
abstract = "we investigate the influence of gas flow and the current level on the oscillation level through diagnostics. The average plasma potential, temporal measurements of plasma potential V, electron density ne, ion density ni as well as the electron temperature Te were measured. The results show that the potential oscillations appear for operation at high discharge current or low flow rate conditions. Increasing flow rate is much more effective for reducing the high amplitude of potential oscillations than decreasing the discharge current. The xenon ions ionized in space was analyzed for the fast potential rising and dissipation of the space xenon ions was the reason for the gentle potential delaying.",
