dc.description.abstractLaser-induced fluorescence (LIF) is a non-intrusive technique that can provide useful information on ion production and acceleration in electric propulsion system. In this paper, spatially resolved LIF measurements of Xe+ are performed in the plume of an electron cyclotron resonance plasma thruster. The mapping of ion velocity distribution function in the magnetic nozzle shows that the ions are accelerated over a distance greater than 12 cm. A mean axial velocity up to 16 km/s has been obtained at 1 sccm and 26 W. The acceleration of ions is compared for different xenon flowrates.en
