Abstract

828,616. Mass spectrometers. GENERAL ELECTRIC CO. April 13, 1956 [April 13, 1955], No. 11332/56. Class 39(1). In a mass spectrometer the energy of the ions formed and accelerated in tube is converted into light impulses at a phosphor screen, 15 forming part of a scintillation counter 13, and the light impulses are amplified and converted into electrical pulses in the photo multiplier section of the scintillation counter. The electrical pulses which are proportional in amplitude to the masses of the ions are analysed in a pulseheight analyzer 16 which also records the numbers of the pulses.
