A direct comparison of a reflectron time-of-flight mass spectrometer equipped with a two stage gridded reflector to one with a gridless was carried out by ion trajectory simulations using a set of starting conditions which represent the different sources of signal broadening in a reflectron.
This rectangular ion funnel (RIF) was initially evaluated by ion simulations, fabricated utilizing printed circuit board technology, and tested experimentally.
The electrode design of the RIF was guided by ion simulations prior to fabrication.
Over this range, we see that optimal lengths predicted by simulations using explicit ions or Debye–Huckel interactions agree to within about 10%.
Presented are computer simulations using SIMION 8.1 for an ion deceleration and RFQ ion guide instrument design.
The initial configuration of ions is then determined through Monte Carlo simulations using a primitive model, i.e., scaled Coulombic and van der Waals interactions.
Then, Eugene N. Nikolaev (Institute of Biochemical Physics, Moscow, Russian Federation) investigated the complex trajectories of ions in FTMS cells: The new possibilities in ion clouds dynamic simulation using supercomputers.
As prescribed by the HAPPI protocol, the 1.5 and 2 °C simulations use the same aerosol forcing.
My current work focuses on improving computer simulations used to model QGP fireballs produced in relativistic heavy-ion collisions.
These results are demonstrated by particle-in-cell (PIC) simulation using the code JPIC12.
