Abstract:
A method of analyzing molecules, comprising: generating ions from a sample of molecules; cooling the generated ions below ambient temperature; fragmenting at least some of the cooled ions by irradiating the ions with light at a plurality of different wavelengths (λ) within one or more predetermined spectral intervals; recording a fragment mass spectrum of the fragmented ions comprising a detected signal (I) versus m/z over a predetermined range of m/z values for each of the plurality of different wavelengths (λ), thereby recording a two-dimensional dependency of the detected signal (I) on m/z and irradiation wavelength (λ); and determining from the recorded two-dimensional dependency an identity of at least one of the generated ions and/or relative abundances of different generated ions and thereby determining an identity of at least of one of the molecules and/or relative abundances of different molecules in the sample.

Claim (Index 17):
An apparatus as claimed in  claim 1  further comprising a collision cell for receiving ions that have been photoactivated by the irradiation with light, wherein the collision cell is configured to be provided with buffer gas to increase a yield of the fragmentation by collisions of ions with the buffer gas.
