We present an overview of IR laser resonant desorption (LRD) studies with special focus on
recent developments by our group. The resonant character of the laser desorption process …

Recent achievements of low temperature secondary emission mass spectrometry in exotic
fields of life sciences such as cryobiology are surveyed. Specific problems of molecular …

A hypothesis concerning FAB mechanisms, referred to as a 'bubble chamber FAB model', is
proposed. This model can provide an answer to the long‐standing question as to how fragile …

Correlations between the structure of samples of the frozen solutions of sodium chloride in
water, produced at different parameters of the phase diagram of this system, and the clusters …

We present an alternative matrix system for mass analysis of high molecular weight
biomolecules by matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry …

Large H3O+ (H2O) n clusters, up to n≈ 100, were produced by IR laser resonant desorption
of an ice matrix using an optical parametric oscillator (OPO) at 3.1 μm. The velocity …

The signal of an extremely air sensitive and thermally unstable intermediate, four-membered
ring oxaphosphetane in the Wittig reaction was detected for the first time at subambient …

Using low-temperature secondary ion mass spectrometry (LT-SIMS), this study successfully
detected air-sensitive and less polar compounds dissolved in various organic solvents. A …

The preparation of frozen samples, in which the heterogeneous structures differ on a scale
comparable to the dimensions of the zone excited by a single bombarding particle, has …

Frozen samples of distilled ethanol were studied under the conditions of low temperature
fast atom bombardment mass spectrometry. The abundant production of ethanol clusters …
