Like few other parameters, the mass of an atom, and its inherent connection with the atomic
and nuclear binding energy is a fundamental property, a unique fingerprint of the atomic …

The isotope distribution, which reflects the number and probabilities of occurrence of
different isotopologues of a molecule, can be theoretically calculated. With the current …

This document contains recommendations for terminology in mass spectrometry.
Development of standard terms dates back to 1974 when the IUPAC Commission on …

Using a novel orbitrap mass spectrometer, the authors investigate the dynamic range over
which accurate masses can be determined (extent of mass accuracy) for short duration …

A new relationship between Ion mass and effective cyclotron frequency Is derived for Ions
stored In a cubic cell and de-tected by using Fourier transform mass spectrometry. An …

The fundamental principles of Fourier transform mass spectrometry (FTMS) are presented.
The motion of ions in a FTMS analyzer can be understood in terms of the magnetic and …

Ion cyclotron resonance frequency, f, is conventionally converted to ion mass-to-charge
ratio, m/z (mass “calibration”) by fitting experimental data spanning the entire detected m/z …

Ion motion in a Penning trap and the electrical signals it can produce have been analyzed
for the purpose of identifying the important causes of uncertainty in high‐accuracy mass …

Fourier transform ion cyclotron resonance mass spectrometry is based on image current
