Abstract
A method of injecting ions into an electrostatic trap, comprising: generating ions in an ion source; transporting the ions from the ion source to an ion store downstream of the ion source; releasing the ions from the ion store to an ion guide downstream of the ion store; and accelerating the ions from the ion guide as a pulse into an orbital electrostatic trap for mass analysis, wherein the average velocity of the ions as the ions exit from the ion guide is substantially higher than the average velocity of the ions as they exit from the ion store, wherein there is a delay between releasing the ions from the ion store and accelerating the ions from the ion guide. Also an apparatus suitable for the method.
