abstract = "The hollow cathodes are the main source of electrons for plasma
generation and beam neutralization in ion thrusters. Three
different hollow cathodes have been experimentally studied to
better understand the hollow cathode discharge modes and its
plasma parameters. Discharge modes of operation were analyzed.
Plasma parameters were measured using an electrostatic probe while
varying the operating conditions with both Argon and Xenon.
Profiles of plasma parameters for different axial locations of the
probe were obtained. Test results revealed that discharge modes
and plasma parameters are in agreement with those reported in the
literature and are considered typical results for hollow
cathodes.",
