Rodríguez, Daniel Smorra, C. Blaum, K. Delay-line detector Penning trap mass spectrometry TOF-ICR Ion optics Beam diagnostics Position-sensitive ion detection A commercial, position-sensitive ion detector was used for the first time for the time-of-flight ion-cyclotron resonance detection technique in Penning trap mass spectrometry. In this work, the characteristics of the detector and its implementation in a Penning trap mass spectrometer will be presented. In addition, simulations and experimental studies concerning the observation of ions ejected from a Penning trap are described. This will allow for a precise monitoring of the state of ion motion in the trap. 2014-04-25T11:22:26Z 2014-04-25T11:22:26Z 2009 preprint Eitel, G.; et al.
