ION DISSOCIATION IN THE DRIFT TUBE OF A TIMEOF-FLIGHT MASS SPECTROMETER: II. FIXED DELTA T METHOD OF IDENTIFYING FRAGMENT IONS,

Abstract

The fixed delta t method of identifying fragment ions formed in the drift tube (analyzer) of a time-of-flight mass spectrometer depends on determining the potential barrier characteristics required to produce a preselected flight-time shift. It is both simpler and more accurate than the comparison method used in a previous series of experiments. (Author)
