Abstract

Charge stripping reactions of the type m• + N--+ m2• + N + ehave
been studied for a variety of diatomic and triatomic inorganic
and organic ions. Ionisation energies of the m• ions, IE (m+--+ m2• ),
have been determined, most of them for the first time. The method
is fast and straightforward; it is applicable to both molecular and
fragment .ions. The relative cross-sections for the charge stripping
processes have been also determined; they show l\lrge variations
from one species to another. Cases of possible interferences, which
are fairly infrequent, are described and discussed.
