European Journal of Mass Spectrometry

Aims & Scope

EJMS - European Journal of Mass Spectrometry, is a peer-reviewed journal, devoted to the publication of innovative research in mass spectrometry.

Articles in the journal come from proteomics, metabolomics, petroleomics and other areas developing under the umbrella of the “omic revolution”.

The scope of the journal covers applications of mass spectrometry in biology and medicine, ionisation in gas, liquid and solid phases, chemical reactions of ions in the gas phase, physics of ionic collisions, spectroscopy of ions, design and manufacture of mass spectrometers, applications of computers to mass spectrometry and applications of mass spectrometry to the environment and applications in the pharmaceutical industry.

Topics of interest include experimental and theoretical studies of structures, energetics and reactions of gaseous ions, ion optical theories and ion optics in high vacuum and at higher pressures, ion formation from biological solids, elucidation of interactions and structures of biomolecules in condensed phases, mechanisms of ionic reactions, electrospray ionisation (ESI) and nano-electrospray ionisation, laser –stimulated ionisation and desorption of macromolecules in condensed phases, mass spectrometry of industrial organic and inorganic polymers, formation and reactions of reactions of clusters, reactions of ions at surfaces, multi-photon ionisation and dissociation, ion mobilityand related techniques, time-of-flight (ToF), Fourier transform ion cyclotron resonance (FT-ICR) and theories of ion formation, ion structure and dynamics of ion reactions.
