56. The direct charge inversion of a cation to an anion is also referred to as double-charge-transfer (DCT) spectroscopy; for an example and further references, see R. P. Grant, F. M. Harris, S. R. Andrews, D. E. Parry, Int. J. Mass Spectrom. Ion Processes 1995, 142, 117
57. V, is negative because it refers to the formation of an anion from a cation, whereas the sum of EA and IE represents the reverse. Therefore, the signs of these values differ, but their totals are reasonably consistent.
58. This time interval is estimated from the assumption of two collisions occurring within a single collision cell. Given a flight path of about 1 cm for the transient neutral molecule, we obtain a flight time of ca. 60 ns for 8 keV ions or 30 ns for one half-life.
