Abstract

The electromagnetic field of a new E∥B neutral particle analyzer (NPA) capable of mass resolution and energy resolution has been designed. The E∥B field is composed of a magnetic field and an electric field which are parallel and in tandem. Layout of the field is designed so that both the mass and energy resolution are realized on the detector plane.
