Preface
Ion/molecule reaction mass spectrometry has proved to be one of the most powerful, sensitive, and versatile research techniques and has been applied to analysis in a great variety of qualitative and quantitative studies. As a consequence, mass spectrometers have undergone endless cycles of development of ionization methods for a wide variety of applications. Under these circumstances, the novel ionization method appears that must make difference in science, especially in the field of chemical and environmental analysis, plasma diagnostics, process monitoring, biological, and clinical analysis. The study of ion–molecule reactions started in the early 1950s with active researches in conventional mass spectrometers with modified ion sources operated at high pressure. Its unique feature is that the initial reaction step is driven by ionpermanent dipole or ion-induced dipole attraction between the reactants and it often occurs without any activation energy. The field has grown rapidly since that time. Pioneering works go back to experiments of Talrose and Melton and the technique was developed to be analytically useful by Munson and Field in the mid-1960s. Kinetic and thermodynamic studies have also grown rapidly during that time, with the development of mass spectrometry (MS) itself. Indeed, the majority of the thermochemical parameters in the gas phase for chemical compounds were determined using various MS techniques. Th
