The book is organized into three sections. The first contains the most recent views on fundamental aspects of particle bombardment. Discussions of 252Cf plasma desorption and laser desorption mass spectrometry have been included for comparison. The second section addresses the issues involved in instrument design, covering work on liquid metal and FAB ion guns. The last part presents representative applications of these bombardment methods.

Very low basicity and nucleophilicity made the trifluoromethanesulfonate anion (TfO ) the counterion of choice for labile cationic species as in dication salts 53 and 54, which were characterized by FD, FAB and 252Cf-Plasma Desorption mass spectrometry40. In the FD mass spectrum of 53, the noteworthy presence of the dication itself ([D]2 + ) was found, giving the base peak, accompanied by a cation triflate cluster [D OTf]+ and fragment ions, involving cleavage at the ether bond.
