Recent years have witnessed tremendous growth in research into the fundamental physics of numerous innovative propulsion technologies. This work is the first of its kind to compile the available research on plasma propulsion into a single source. The book examines the physical principles of plasma propulsion independently from any particular hardware or implementation, providing a strong, universally applicable foundation. Following introductory chapters on collisional and collective processes, cutting-edge contributions by leading experts profile the current state of understanding in the field. Coverage ranges from basic electrode processes to Hall, magnetoplasmadynamic, and pulsed plasma acceleration.

Professor Edgar Choueiri is Director of Princeton University's Program in Engineering Physics, and Director of Princeton's Electric Propulsion and Plasma Dynamics Laboratory (EPPDyL). He is tenured Full Professor in the Applied Physics Group at the Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering Department, and associated faculty at the Astrophysical Sciences Department/Program in Plasma Physics at Princeton University. He holds a PhD in Aerospace Engineering/Plasma Science (1991) from Princeton University. He has been the Principle Investigator (PI) in charge of directing and managing more than 30 competitively selected research projects, (totaling more than $10M of funding) funded by NASA, AFOSR, the National Science Foundation, and other governmental and private institutions. He has been PI and Co-PI on two space experiments onboard the Space Shuttle and the Russian scientific spacecraft APEX. Professor Choueiri's laboratory (EPPDyL) at Princeton University, a recognized center of excellence in research in the field of advanced spacecraft propulsion, has been continuously funded by NASA since he became EPPDyL's Chief Scientist in 1996. Prof. Choueiri is the author of more than 160 journal articles, conference papers and encyclopedia articles on plasma thrusters, plasma physics, instabilities and turbulence in collisional plasmas, plasma accelerator modeling, space physics and applied mathematics.
