摘要

Results are presented of experiments conducted to determine the nature of the plasma produced by the impact of hypervelocity debris particles on a spaceraft sub-system and the possibility that they could constitute a triggering mechanism for ESD. Hypervelocity impacts produce damage in the form of cratering, ejecta of the solid constituents of the surface, a plasma consisting of the cover glass laminate material and vaporized aluminum from the impacting particle. The morphology of the deposited ejecta and the chemistry of the vapor were determined by scanning electron microscopy and energy dispersive spectroscopy. The vapor products of the ejecta were spread over a rather large area compared to the diameter of the debris particle, as over 90 percent of the 4.0cm by 4.0cm sample was covered with a deposition of the contaminant film. (Subsequent experiments have shown that this film produced a 15 percent loss in light transmission through the solar cell cover glass, over solar wavelengths of interest.) From these finding, it is suggested that hypervelocity debris or micrometeorite impacts on spacecraft with differentially charged surfaces could constitute a mechanism by which electrostatic discharging could be triggered. This mechanism may explain the discharge anomalies noted on spacecraft surfaces, especially those occurring on the day-side of the spacecraft and during geomagnetic quiet times.
