Computational and experimental analysis of HIIPER MPD propulsion system
… Injected Inertial Plasma Electrostatic Rocket (HIIPER) is a deep space electric propulsion system developed on the principles of inertial electrostatic confinement (IEC) fusion and helicon plasma injection. It is a stepping stone towards a variable impulse pulsed fusion rocket. HIIPER involves a …

Investigation of a space propulsion concept using inertial electrostatic confinement
… Injected Inertial Plasma Electrostatic Rocket (HIIPER), a space propulsion concept consisting of a helicon source for plasma generation and an ion extraction method using a nested pair of inertial electrostatic confinement (IEC) grids that are asymmetrically designed. In this study, which used …

Comparative simulations of conceptual ion extractors for use in asymmetric inertial electrostatic confinement
… Injected Inertial Plasma Electrostatic Rocket (HIIPER) is an attempt to create a new type of robust plasma propulsion solution and is the predecessor to a propulsion and power plant hybrid device, integrating two systems on a vessel to one. Using an asymmetric Inertial Electrostatic Confinement …

Experimental and numerical validation of ion extractor grids
… Injected Inertial Plasma Electrostatic Rocket (HIIPER) at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign (UIUC) is currently being investigated. HIIPER features an Inertial Electrostatic Con nement (IEC) grid that is made asymmetrical by cutting out several wires to enlarge one of the openings …
