Description

A time-of-flight mass spectrometer was constructed to measure the masses of neutron-rich recoils produced in proton-induced fragmentation reactions. This system consists of four sector magnets designed such that the overall flight time is independent of the velocity of the recoil ions and thus depends only on their mass-to-charge ratios. (orig.)
