Summary: | The article presents a quantum mechanical model of an ion thruster. The basic equations describing
the shape of the accelerated beam are considered. Detector plates demonstrating the interference
pattern in thin films are presented. A mathematical description of the relief of thin films is given using
the resulting wave function. The operation of a low-power ion engine is demonstrated. The results
of numerical solution of the model with different initial values are shown. Based on the results of
calculations, diagrams of the trajectories of charged particles are constructed. |
