Abstract

A new type of collimator design is described for energetic neutral atom instruments for space research applications. The collimator consists of annular entrance and exit slits with charged particle deflection plates between them. This configuration allows one to meet three seemingly contradicting requirements of compact design, efficient rejection of the incoming ions, and a large field of view.
