Description

A fairly compact mass spectrometer suitable for vacuum use, and requiring no cooling, was built utilizing permanent magnets. A uniform, variable magnetic field, with a maximum of 2800 G, was produced in a 0.6-cm-wide gap by using a rotating block of samarium--cobalt permanent magnets, and an iron yoke assembly
