Franz Georg Hey summarises the development and testing of a microNewton thrust balance, as well as the downscaling of a High Efficiency Multistage Plasma Thruster to microNewton thrust levels. The balance is tailored to fully characterise thruster candidates for the space based gravitational wave detector LISA. Thus, thrust noise measurements in submicroNewton regime can be performed in the overall LISA bandwidth. The downscaled thruster can be operated down to serval tens of microNewton with a comparably high specific impulse.About the AuthorFranz Georg Hey works as mechanical, thermal, propulsion architect and technical lead of the microNewton propulsion laboratory of Europes leading air and spacecraft manufacturer. The author is participating on major programmes for future satellite and electric propulsion development. The authors research is performed in close collaboration with the Dresden University of Technology, the University of Bremen and the DLR Bremen.
