I would think no external magnetic field is necessary. The scope's deflecting electrostatic (or magnetic) field will deflect a mass 3m particle less than a mass m particle with the same charge. Might try adding a DC bias to an AC signal and setting beam brightness on maximum and signal deflection just off screen and look for a ghost trace at about 1/3 screen. Alternatively, eliminate sweep and input signal altogether, and look for a spot at about 1/3 screen when main spot is biased to just off screen. Main problem is providing an electronium source to the electron gun. Regards, Horace Heffner
