Scientific paper

The design and use of mass spectrometers to measure and identify atmospheric gas compositions of planets are discussed. Special emphasis during the design phase was given to dynamic range that the instrument must have, mass range the instrument must cover, and precision of the measurements that are necessary, for example to confirm isotope ratios. Some problems encountered in the use of the instrument are illustrated using data from the Pioneer-Venus program.
