Abstract
An energy analyser for neutral hydrogen and noble gas atoms is described. The neutral particles are ionized by electron stripping in a gas cell and the resulting ions are energy-analysed in an electrostatic spectrometer. The instrument is absolutely calibrated with nitrogen in the gas cell. The lowest energies which can be detected are 200 eV for hydrogen, 800 eV for helium and 1 keV for neon atoms.Keywords
