In this experiment the scattering angle is defined by pre-collision electrical deflection of the parent ion beam, as contrasted with post-collision selection of the direction of the daughter ion beam. Advantages are rapid access to any desired angle, coupled with an improvement in ion intensity and in angular resolution evident from measured breakdown curves. Collision-induced dissociation spectra of the methanol molecular ion, recorded over a range of scattering angles, agree well with previous results. Experiments which record ions that survive collisions, i.e., scatter <em>without</em> fragmentation, indicate that scattering of polyatomic ions through substantial angles (0–6°) makes a significant contribution to the phenomena underlying angle-resolved mass spectrometry.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":13998,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Mass Spectrometry and Ion Physics","volume":"52 2","pages":"Pages 311-318"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1983-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1016/0020-7381(83)85051-7","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"74181604","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
