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 3):
An apparatus as claimed in  claim 1  wherein the light source and mass analyzer are configured to operate such that for each chromatographic peak of interest the mass analysis of the fragment ions is conducted at each of a plurality of wavelengths of the light (\u03bb), thereby enabling a two-dimensional spectrum of a detected signal (I) of the mass analyzer on m/z and irradiation wavelength (\u03bb) to be recorded for that chromatographic peak.
