Physics

Scientific paper

A simulation of a magnetic spectrometer system and the study of its instrumental response are presented here. An analytic, three-dimensional expression for the inhomogeneous and fringing magnetic field of the system is obtained. A three-dimensional, time-reversed trajectory calculation of electrons and protons inside the system is performed. A clean electron-ion separation and electron analysis are achieved. The geometric factors of the electron and proton detectos for different energies and the particles' angular distributions are determined. It is found that the geometric factors of two electron detectors E and F have an appreciable variation for different energies with a maximum at 70 and 500 keV, respectively, whereas the proton detector has monotonic increasing geometric factors as the energy increases.
