Fig. 5: Kinematics of anions confined in the MR-ToF device.
From: Enhanced sensitivity for electron affinity measurements of rare elements
a Simulated distribution of anion velocities (gray histogram) and the model built upon it (red line). b Simulated probability distribution (gray histogram) representing the fraction of neutralized atoms with velocity v moving toward the neutral particle detector, which reach the active surface of the detector, overlapped with the model built upon it (red line). In both panels, the color-shaded regions represent the different regions of influence of each electrode group in the MR-ToF instrument: Central Drift Tube (blue), Mirrors (green), and Lenses (yellow). A representation of the device’s electrode structure is given for reference at the top of the figure.
