Dictionary of Mass Spectrometry

The past decade has seen huge advances in the types and applications of mass spectrometry in all areas of science and with this growth has come a bewildering array of names, technical terms and abbreviations, making it a challenge to keep up–to–date. This Dictionary will act as a first point of reference for definitions of new and currently used terms and to guide users to important information. Fully illustrated in four–colour the Dictionary will aid scientists from all disciplines to become conversant in the language and terminology of mass spectrometry.
Over 800 technical terms and acronyms used in the areas of mass spectrometry and related techniques.Intended to provide easy navigation through the terminology and to be a first point of reference for definitions of new and established terms.Highly illustrated with over 400 images of instrument schematics, relevant spectra and instruments throughout and extensively cross–referenced
The Dictionary will be an essential reference source for beginners and experienced users when seeking a definition in the field, purchasers of equipment who need an explanation of the technical terms used in manufacturer′s brochures and manuals and potential MS users who want a definition of an unfamiliar instrument or technique
