Abstract
The spectrometer suites onboard NASA’s Magnetospheric Multiscale (MMS) mission offered us an unexpected breakthrough in measurement capability that no spacecraft or laboratory experiment has achieved previously: the ingeniously engineered FPI dual ion and electron spectrometers enable direct measurement of terms in the Vlasov equation for the first time in the history of plasma physics research.
