The radial plasma density distributions in discharge tubes of various diameters and lengths, which determine the electromagnetic properties of the radiating structure, are investigated. It is shown that the experimental radial density profile is close to a zeroth-order Bessel function. The particle-in-cell (PiC) numerical simulations reproducing conditions close to the experiment demonstrate that the discharge initially forms a tubular structure that gradually evolves into a steady-state regime with the <i>a</i> profile close to the Bessel one. Depending on the product of pressure and tube radius <i>pa</i>, three characteristic types of the radial profile are distinguished: tubular (<i>pa</i> <span>( gtrsim )</span> 1 Torr cm), plateau-shaped, and bell-shaped (Bessel, <i>pa</i> &lt; 0.1 Torr cm) profiles with a peak plasma density <i>n</i><sub><i>e</i></sub> ≈ 2.5 × 10<sup>11</sup> cm<sup>–3</sup>. The numerical simulation of the antenna radiation shows that the shape of the radial profile governs the field distribution along the radiating structure and the shape of the radiation pattern. For the wave-type antenna, the resonant half-wavelength is 160, 195, and 115 mm for the tubular, plateau-shaped, and Bessel-like profiles, respectively, while the number of radiation pattern lobes decreases from six to four. For the quarter-wave antenna, the resonant half-wavelength changes from 90 to 105 and then to 60 mm for the same profiles, with the number of lobes decreasing from six to two.

A coaxial electrical circuit for connecting the gas-discharge chamber, ensuring a single breakdown mode, is used. A set of diagnostic methods is employed: high-frequency voltage and current measurements, a four-channel ICCD camera, high-resolution time-integral photography, and time-integral and time-resolved optical emission spectroscopy. It is established that the breakdown occurs in 0.1–0.2 ns via counter-propagating streamers, after the collision of which a diffuse discharge is formed lasting ≈2–5 ns.

To mitigate this fundamental limitation, the double-discharge APPT (DD-APPT) configuration was proposed. In this study, a comprehensive zero-dimensional numerical model is developed to simulate the sequential discharge processes and predict the thruster’s propulsion performance, accounts for the spatial separation of ablation and acceleration regions.
