| Description | Measurements of the external magnetic field of several electron-bombardment mercury ion thrusters were made using a single axis fluxgate magnetometer. The axial dipole moment accounted for most of the external field. In addition, residual fields from an electromagnet thruster were approximately 20 percent of the initial field. Simple degaussing of the axial magnets reduced the residual fields to 1 to 2 percent of the initial field. |
