Abstract
The effect on the shape of “metastable peaks” arising from decompositions throughout the whole flight path in a mass spectrometer is considered. The effects of discriminations against product ions are calculated; the effects of finite beam dimensions, angular spreading and kinetic energy of separation of fragments during the decomposition are discussed theoretically and illustrated by practical examples.Keywords
