Scientific paper

The problem of motion in an electric field of a cold inertially expanding collisionless plasma cloud, produced in the collision of a micrometeoroid with an anode, is addressed in the framework of the design of time-of-flight mass spectrometers, particularly pertinent to the instruments to be carried on the Vega and Giotto missions to comet Halley. The progressive removal of electrons from the cloud and the electrostatic acceleration of the stripped ions is also considered, and the importance of the self-consistent electrostatic space-charge field of the stripped ions is emphasized.
