The time-of-flight mass analysers find broad application not only in earth, but also in space
conditions.
The designs of time-of-flight mass analysers for research of an element structure of gas
streams, dust fragments and micrometeorites are described.
The calculation of parameters of a mass analyser is based on definition of a distribution law
of potentials. The description of methods of calculation of design data is adduced.
