Abstract The magnetoplasmadynamic thruster (MPDT) is characterized by its high specific impulse and substantial thrust density, making it a promising propulsion system for deep space exploration missions. In both laboratory experiments and practical applications, cathode ablation has emerged as a critical concern. An optical diagnostic approach based on monochromatic radiation temperature measurement, utilizing plume emission spectra and the selection of an appropriate test band, has been successfully employed. This method provides an accurate temperature distribution across the cathode surface, offering a novel testing technique for the optimization and evaluation of magnetic plasma thruster designs.

Online attention
Altmetric calculates a score based on the online attention an article receives. Each coloured thread in the circle represents a different type of online attention. The number in the centre is the Altmetric score. Social media and mainstream news media are the main sources that calculate the score. Reference managers such as Mendeley are also tracked but do not contribute to the score. Older articles often score higher because they have had more time to get noticed. To account for this, Altmetric has included the context data for other articles of a similar age.
