The dual-mode operation of a stationary plasma thruster (SPT) has been investigated using the SPT-140 laboratory-model thruster. The SPT-140 is designed for operation at power levels between 4 and 6 kW. The first mode investigated is the standard one

In order to test time resolved diagnostics, a controlled energy fluctuation source has been designed. This source is able to give beams of fluctuating energy in different time controlled regimes. Two operating modes have been tested. The first one is
