A plasma thruster comprises a plasma chamber having first and second axial ends, the first of which is open, an anode located at the second axial end, and a cathode. The cathode and anode are arranged to produce an electric field having at least a component in the axial direction of the thruster. A magnet system comprising a plurality of magnets is spaced around the thruster axis, each magnet having its north and south poles spaced around the axis. |
