25th Spacecraft Plasma Interaction Network in Europe (SPINE) Workshop

25 Oct 2018, 09:00 → 26 Oct 2018, 18:00 Europe/Amsterdam

Escape Dance Room (ESTEC)

Fabrice Cipriani (ESA), Mika Holmberg (ESTEC)

The SPINE workshop is an open forum on new research and technology, needs and plans in the area of spacecraft plasma interactions.

We seek contributions on topics of interest such as, but not excluding to:

- Charging environments and standards
- Material properties (measurements, databases, new materials, etc.)
- Electric propulsion plasma environments, interactions with spacecraft and electrical orbit raising
- Charging of Cubesats and Nanosats
- Particle and Wave instrument contamination by plasma plumes effects
- Plasma instruments and electrostatic cleanliness
- Charged dusts in space, interactions with space probes
- SPIS software performance, current and future developments, interoperability with other simulation tools
