An experiment by the University of Southampton : measurements of the atomic oxygen levels and the ultraviolet and X rays emitted by the sun An experiment for the optical characterization of the optical degradation of materials carried out by ONERA's Space Environment Department (DESP)...
Current emitted by the source about few tens of mAStudy of species produced by atomic oxygen impact on materials using mass spectrometry. Baseline pressure 10-6 Torr (1 10-4 with plasma).
Plasma enhancement allows the initiation of chemical reactions far from the sample : the inelastic collisions between energetic electrons and heavy atoms promote the production of gaseous reactive species like atomic oxygen and metal sub oxide....
