Figure 2.
Calculated blackbody infrared radiative dissociation Arrhenius plots for protonated (AlaGly)n, where n = 4 (•), 8 (▪), 16 (○), and 32 (▴), and for an ion in the rapid energy exchange limit (–). Dissociation parameters of E0 = 1.5 eV and A∞ = 1016.8 s−1 were used. Dashed lines indicate the typical Fourier transform mass spectrometry experimental kinetic window at a magnetic field strength of 2.7 T and for electrospray-generated ions.
