Ion Optics

Ion optics is a theoretical framework in plasma physics that governs the manipulation and control of ion trajectories in electric and magnetic fields within ion propulsion systems, distinguishing it from other propulsion sub-models by its focus on field-mediated ion beam formation and acceleration dynamics.
