Scientific paper

The advanced space experiment CoMA (cometary matter analyzer), which is to be flown on NASA's cometary rendezvous and asteroid flyby mission CRAF, is presented. CoMA is a high-resolution time-of-flight secondary ion mass spectrometer. It is to analyze micron-sized cometary dust grains and cometary gases with an unprecedented mass resolution and is to yield data on element, isotopic, and molecular composition.
