19. If the rf power were high enough, it might be possible that molecules in the focusing MK = 1 state could be transformed into defocusing MK = + 1 states by sequential processes. At voltages a little larger than 2 kV, molecules undergoing C-field transitions to MK = +1 levels can acquire enough focusing character in the A field to still allow them to enter the QMS. Inclusion of the MK = +1 levels on the assumption that all M states are equilibrated produces a similar result, and information about the population of the MK = +1 levels is inconclusive.
