176. Bench Test of Actual TEGA Filament

TEGA qualification filament (with attached ion pump) provided by the University of Texas, Dallas being tested and characterized at Battel Engineering. The batteries in the foreground are used to bias the filaments for proper emission. The transfer function of the filament system must be understood in order to properly simulate filament performance during hardware testing.
