I have tried to explain that each of the mass analyzers discussed has specific merits and
limitations. The picture present in your mind depends on the side from which you look (Fig …

The capability for accurate mass measurements is an important attribute of Fourier transform
mass spectrometry (FTMS). Unlike other instrumental methods in mass spectrometry, FTMS …

Molecular mass spectrometry continues to show an exponential growth, with a substantial
proportion of its applications still requiring the identification of unknown mass spectra. The …

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 …

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 (FT-ICRMS or FT-MS) is a
technique that effec-tively converts ionic mass-to-charge ra-tio, m/q, to an experimentally …

A theory of ion space-charge influence on the observed ion cyclotron resonance frequency
in static field ion traps is presented. The dependence of this influence on ion density, ion …

A new strategy is described for the determination of amino acid sequences of unknown
peptides. Different from the well-known but often inefficient de novo sequencing approach …

Fourier transform mass spectrometry will play an important role in the future because of its
unique combination of high mass resolution, high upper mass limit, and multichannel …

In ion cyclotron resonance (ICR) and Fourier transform mass spectrometry (FTMS) the mass-
to-charge ratio of an ion is calculated from its measured cyclotron frequency. In principle this …
