Abstract
A mass spectrometer consisting of an electric sector followed by a magnetic sector is described. The geometry is a cylindrically symmetric generalization of the Mattauch–Herzog spectrometer. With its large annular entrance aperture and a position-sensitive detector the instrument provides a large geometric factor and 100% duty factor making it appropriate for spacecraft experiments.Keywords
