E-Sail Three-Dimensional Interplanetary Transfer with Fixed Pitch Angle
The electric solar wind sail (E-sail) is a propellantless propulsion system concept based on the use of a system of very long and thin conducting tethers, which create an artificial electric field that is able to deflect the solar-wind-charged particles in order to generate a net propulsive accelera...
