Since its inception, Mass Spectrometry Forum has had as its goal the introduction and explanation of various aspects of mass spectrometry to the wide readership of Spectroscopy. Implicit in this goal is the realization that these readers are not experts in mass spectrometry and may not even be specifically trained as chemists. But they are an interested and erudite group of readers that depend on careful composition and clear description. Writing for this audience is a challenge. It is therefore instructive to read explanations of mass spectrometry that appear in other publications aimed at ...
