Toward Quantitation of Ion/Molecule Kinetics in Fourier Transform Ion Cyclotron Resonance Mass Spectrometry

Abstract

The effects of excitation amplitude, collisional relaxation of ions, and incomplete ejection of unwanted ions, on the individual and total ion intensities in a Fourier transform ion cyclotron resonance (FTICR) mass spectrometer have been studied. These effects are found to be in general agreement with existing theories of ion motion in FTICR analyzer cells. The influence of these factors on determination of rate coefficients for ion/ molecule reactions is discussed.
