The objective of this contract is to develop improved numeric algorithms for the computation of spacecraft charging on Earth-orbiting spacecraft. This work is part of the Nascap-2k program, which is a joint program with the Space Environment Effects (SEE) Program at NASA/MSFC. The end result of the program is a user friendly computer code that computes spacecraft charging in dense and tenuous plasma environments. The primary focus of the SEE Program's contribution was funding development of the graphical user interface and user documentation, as well as a related program to measure relevant material properties.
