Guide to Mitigating Spacecraft Charging Effects
Henry B. Garrett; Albert C. Whittlesey
Synopsis "Guide to Mitigating Spacecraft Charging Effects"
The definitive guide to the modern body of spacecraftcharging knowledge—from first principles for the beginner tointermediate and advanced conceptsThe only book to blend the theoretical and practical aspects ofspacecraft charging, Guide to Mitigating Spacecraft ChargingEffects defines the environment that not only creates the aurora,but which also can have significant effects on spacecraft, such asdisruption of science measurements and solar arrays fromelectrostatic discharge (ESD). It describes in detail the physicsof the interaction phenomenon as well as how to constructspacecraft to enhance their survivability in the harsh environmentof space.Combining the authors' extensive experience in spacecraftcharging—and in their provision of design support to NASA,JPL, the commercial satellite market, and numerous otherprojects—this incredible book offers both a robust physicsbackground and practical advice for neophytes in the field andexperienced plasma physicists and spacecraft engineers.In addition to containing numerous equations, graphs, tables,references, and illustrations, Guide to Mitigating SpacecraftCharging Effects covers:Solar cell technology, especially higher voltage arrays, and thenew design approaches that are appropriate for themInformation about the space plasma environmentNew analytic computer codes to analyze spacecraft chargingSpacecraft anomalies and failures which emphasized designs thatare of greater importance than others
