Applications of ISOLTRAPs multi-reflection time-of-flight mass spectrometer — •Frank Wienholtz — Ernst-Moritz-Arndt-Universität, Institut für Physik, Greifswald, Germany

Mass spectrometers (MS) and more specific high-resolving multi-reflection time-of-flight (MR-ToF) devices have provided a fast way to separate the different components of ion beams. Thus, they are applicable to many fields of physics and beyond. This contribution will give an overview on how ISOLTRAPs MR-ToF MS at ISOLDE/CERN was already used, not only to support Penning-trap mass spectrometry and for mass measurements on its own, but also as a highly-selective detector for target and ion-source developments as well as for in-source laser spectroscopy. Furthermore, it has been a valuable tool as a highly sensitive and selective ion-beam monitor supporting gamma spectroscopy measurements, isotope accumulations for solid state physics and collections for medical applications. With their advantageous combination of high measurement speed and high resolving power it can be expected that further fields of application for MR-ToF devices are just around the corner. The development of the ISOLTRAP MR-ToF MS is supported by the BMBF (contract numbers 05P12HGCI1 and 05P15HGCIA).
