Presidential Young Investigator Award/Analytical Fourier Transform Mass Spectrometry

该项目属于分析和表面化学的一般领域，以及质谱学的子领域。戴维·劳德教授将利用傅里叶变换离子回旋共振质谱仪来监测色谱实验中的流量。通过对回旋加速器内离子电荷密度运动的基础研究，将扩大FTMS方法的应用范围。这一认识将有助于发展捕获离子的理论和应用，以提高FTMS的分辨率和质量范围。这将使该方法与各种色谱实验的耦合成为可能。这笔为期五年的持续资助给德克萨斯大学奥斯汀分校，以奖励Laude教授作为总统青年研究员的支持，旨在促进他作为傅立叶变换方法和质谱学领域的独立研究员快速有效地成长。

This project is in the general area of analytical and surface chemistry and in the subfield of mass spectrometry. Professor David Laude will utilize Fourier transform ion cyclotron resonance mass spectrometry to monitor flow from chromatographic experiments. The utility of the FTMS method will be expanded via fundamental studies into the ion charge density movement within the cyclotron cell. This understanding will allow the development of theory and application of trapping the ions to improve resolution and mass range in FTMS. This will make the coupling of the method to various chromatographic experiments realizable. This five year continuing grant to the University of Texas at Austin for the support of Professor Laude as a Presidential Young Investigator is designed to promote his rapid and effective growth as an independent researcher in the area of Fourier transform methods and mass spectrometry.
