Calculation to determine the mass of daughter ions in metastable decay

A new method is presented for determining the mass of products resulting from metastable decay in a reflectron time-of-flight mass-spectrometer. The validity of the calculation was confirmed through comparison to experimental values obtained while studying a water cluster and a methanol cluster syst...
