Ion-optical properties, including magnification, dispersion, aberrations and resolution, of homogeneous magnetic sector fields have been re-examined for the case of a beam incident normally on the field boundary. The calculations have been presented in graphical form with a view to being readily useful to the designer.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
