Synopses & Reviews

Publisher Comments:

Providing a theoretical background for inorganic mass spectrometry, this text describes classical applications of four modern mass spectrometers - magnetic sector, quadrupole, time-of-flight, and ion trap - and illustrates how they have impacted elemental and isotopic analysis. The book features examples that concentrate on routine and non-routine applications of inorganic analysis techniques.

Book News Annotation:

Twelve contributions describe the fundamental operating characteristics of the most common inorganic mass spectrometers. At the center of discussion is a description of the various ionization sources that generate a representative analyte population for mass analysis. The initial chapters introduce the mass spectrometric hardware that separates the ionized fractions of analytes, one mass from another. The detection schemes used to measure this ion population, and the data processing systems that permit this information to be of value to the chemist analyst, are also discussed. A brief introduction is provided to four types of modern mass spectrometers—magnetic sector, quadrupole, time-of-flight, or ion trap. Classical applications are discussed to illustrate how these devices have shaped the landscape of elemental and isotopic chemical analysis.
