On the use of breakdown graphs combined with energy‐dependent mass spectrometry to provide a complete picture of fragmentation processes

Abstract
Both breakdown graphs and energy‐dependent (ED) maps provide a means of visually representing the fragmentation processes resulting from collision‐induced dissociation at different energies. The two presentation methods may be combined for a complete picture of the appearance, disappearance and maximum abundance collision potentials of each of the ions involved in the fragmentation process. A demonstration of this approach is presented using two very different classes of compound, an amino acid and a transition metal carbonyl cluster. Copyright © 2002 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
