A short description of the microwave plasma source CERA-V and the results of the experimental investigations of ion energetic spectrum dependence on the charge particle gradient in the region of double layer creation are presented. The conclusion about the possibility of SmCo6-magnets use in CERA-V is made that improves its parameters as a spaceship engine.
