{{DefName|A [[time-of-flight mass spectrometer]] that uses a static electric field to reverse the direction of travel of the ions entering it. A reflectron improves [[mass resolution]] by assuring that ions of the same ''[[m/z]]'' but different [[kinetic energy]] arrive at the detector at the same time. }}
