The ion optics of multi‐turn time‐of‐flight (TOF) mass spectrometry was investigated. Two feasible systems using toroidal sector plus quadrupole lenses and cylindrical sectors plus quadrupole doublets were found. The combination of a linear TOF with a figure‐of‐eight type multi‐turn system is proposed. © 1997 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
