Ion Yields

X-Radiolysis ion yields were measured at electric fields between 1 and 60 kV/cm in argon at 87 °K, krypton at 148 °K, and xenon at 183 °K. The results were analyzed according to a theoretical model to obtain the total ion yields Gtot,the free ion yields at zero field strength Gfi0 and the most probable penetration ranges b of the secondary electrons in the liquids. The respective values were: Ar, 7.3, 2.9, 1330 Å; Kr, 13.0, 5.8, 880 Å; Xe, 13.7, 7.0, 720 Å. The total ionization yields in these substances are greater in the liquid than in the gas phase, probably due to smaller ionization potentials in the condensed phase (polarization energy effect). Field dependent electron mobilities are also reported.

Good Agreement

The room temperature, liquid phase radiolysis of n-hexane, 3-methylpentane, and 2,2,4-trimethyl-pentane has been examined using perfluorocyclohexane as an electron scavenger. Yields of C6F11H and C6F11CH3 were determined for scavenger concentrations below 5 × 10−3 M, and from these results free ion yields of 0.08, 0.17, and 0.37 G units were deduced for n-hexane, 3-methylpentane, and 2,2,4-trimethylpentane, respectively. These results are in good agreement with those obtained by other methods.

First Time

Abstract Cesium hydroxide, CsOH, was for the first time characterised on the basis of single-crystal data. The structure is isotypic to the one of the room-temperature modification of NaOH and can be derived from the NaCl structure type thus allowing the comparison of all alkali metal hydroxide structures. Raman spectroscopic investigations show the hydroxide anion to behave almost as a free ion as in the gas phase. The X-ray investigations indicate possible H atom positions.

Ion Yields

Free ion yields have been measured in four hydrocarbon liquids: n-pentane, cyclopentane, neopentane, and neohexane. Each liquid has been studied from room temperature or below up to the critical temperature. Theoretical curves have been calculated using the relation between the free ion yields and the external field strength derived by Terlecki and Fiutak on the basis of an equation by Onsager. Two popular electron range distribution functions, Gaussian and exponential, have been shown not to be an adequate representation of the reality as far as the model used for the calculations is concerned. In order to fit experimental points, both range distribution functions would require a drastic increase in the total ionization yield, Gtot, with temperature increase. This would mean an unrealistic decrease of the ionization potential of the molecule from the melting point up to the critical temperature.It is possible to keep Gtot quite constant and within the range of values obtained by other techniques by extending the Gaussian range distribution function with a (range)−3 probability tail. The most probable range can be normalized for the liquid density. This parameter has been used to obtain information about the behaviour of epithermal electrons in the four alkane liquids from the melting point up to the critical temperature.(1) Normalized penetration ranges of epithermal electrons are dependent on the structure of the molecule in the entire liquid range but differences are smaller at critical than at low temperatures.(2) Normalized penetration ranges of epithermal electrons pass through a maximum in the liquid phase for neopentane, neohexane, and cyclopentane. No maximum is observed for n-pentane.(3) There is no drastic change in the behaviour of epithermal electrons in these alkanes at the critical temperature.

Ion Pair Separation

The ion pair thermal model for MALDI MS is described. Key elements of the model include thermal desorption and ionization, strong tendency to neutralization via ion pair formation and proton transfer in the gas phase, thermal equilibrium, overall charge neutral plume, and thermal energy assisted free ion generation via ion pair separation by ion extraction potential. The quantities of ions in the solid sample and in the gaseous plume are estimated. Ion yields of different classes of molecules including peptides, nucleic acids, permanent salts and neutral molecules are estimated at the macroscale and single ion pair levels. The estimated ion yields are close to experimentally observed values under certain assumptions. Explanations of several observations in MALDI MS such as mostly single-charged peaks, improvement of spectra by ammonium cation, and ion suppression are provided. We expect that the model can give insights for the design of new conditions and systems for improving the sensitivity and resolution of MALDI MS and improving its capability and reliability to analyze large biomolecules.

History Of

Two samples of benzene-treated Bi–Pb–Sr–Ca–Cu–O powder exhibited at 300 K magnetic field dependent diamagnetism and magnetization irreversibility. The treatment with benzene resulted also in the appearance of microwave absorption at low magnetic fields, while is sensitive to magnetic history of the sample. From X-ray diffraction data one can see that upon benzene treatment the reflections of 85 K and 110 K phases do not change practically, but a series of new reflections appeared, indicating a lattice modulation with 4.9 nm periodicity. A microprobe analysis revealed substantial inhomogeneity of chemical composition across the samples. The room temperature anomalies were weakened in one sample and vanished in the second upon thermal cycling.
