Description

The use of field-ionization tips in conjunction with a low-noise solid-state detector can resolve neutral He and H atoms at flux levels comparable to those in the exosphere and interplanetary space. Laboratory results and proposed applications are presented. (orig.)

Abstract (German)

Die Anwendung von Feld-ionisationsspitzen in Verbindung mit rauscharmen Festkoerperzaehlern kann neutrale He und H Atome aufloesen, deren Fluss mit dem in der Exosphaere und dem interplanetarischen Raum vergleichbar ist. Laboruntersuchungen und vorgeschlagene Anwendungen werden dargelegt. (orig.)
