Numerical and experimental investigations of a microwave interferometer for the negative ion source SPIDER

Ivo Furno, Rémy Jacquier, Riccardo Agnello

The electron density close to the extraction grids and the co-extracted electrons represent a crucial issue when operating negative ion sources for fusion reactors. An excessive electron density in the plasma expansion region can indeed inhibit the negativ ...

Fragment ion-functional group relationships in organic aerosols using aerosol mass spectrometry and mid-infrared spectroscopy

Satoshi Takahama, Amir Yazdani, Imad El Haddad, Nikunj Dudani

Aerosol mass spectrometry (AMS) and mid-infrared spectroscopy (MIR) are two analytical methods for characterizing the chemical composition of OM. While AMS provides high-temporal-resolution bulk measurements, the extensive fragmentation during the electron ...

Online Aerosol Chemical Characterization by Extractive Electrospray Ionization-Ultrahigh-Resolution Mass Spectrometry (EESI-Orbitrap)

Julia Schmale, Imad El Haddad

Current mass spectrometry techniques for the online measurement of organic aerosol (OA) composition are subjected to either thermal/ionization-induced artifacts or limited mass resolving power, hindering accurate molecular characterization. Here, we combin ...

Evaporation of Metals during the Thermal Treatment of Oxide Nanomaterials in Cellulose-Based Matrices

Christian Ludwig, Mohamed Tarik

Like conventional material products, waste is the last stage of the life cycle of engineered nanomaterials, which are then incinerated or stabilized before disposal. However, because of their special physical characteristics, the fate of the thermally trea ...

Development of mass spectrometric methods to understand the mechanism of action of transition metal-based anticancer compounds

Fook Seng Ronald Lee

Metal based anti-cancer drugs (metallodrugs) such as cisplatin are a cornerstone of cancer chemotherapy. However, development of this class of compound has been hindered by our lack of understanding of how they function. This is mainly because existing met ...
