A small electrostatic retarding field energy analyzer is constructed in order to measure locally the ion energy distribution functions parallel and perpendicular to a magnetic field. A compensating differentiation circuit enables it to yield the energy distributions clearly in spite of the smallness of the signal available in a low-density plasma. An application is performed to reveal local anisotropic heating due to a plasma instability.
