Abstract

In this paper, parametric studies of kinetic processes of electrodeless high-frequency induction (HFI) and superhigh-frequency (SHF) discharges in plasma in iodine have been carried out within the framework of a global model. The dynamics of the formation of the component composition of the plasma has been obtained for different modes. It is shown that at small times an ion-ion plasma is formed, and at times from a few fractions to units of milliseconds the transition from ion-ion to electron-ion plasma occurs. The model made it possible to determine the most optimal modes of iodine plasma generation in modern electric rocket engines.
