- Glycoproteomics is a powerful yet analytically challenging research tool. Software packages aiding the interpretation of complex glycopeptide tandem mass spectra have appeared, but their relative performance remains untested. Conducted through the HUPO Human Glycoproteomics Initiative, this community study, comprising both developers and users of glycoproteomics software, evaluates solutions for system-wide glycopeptide analysis. The same mass spectrometrybased glycoproteomics datasets from human serum were shared with participants and the relative team performance for N- and O-glycopeptide data analysis was comprehensively established by orthogonal performance tests. Although the results were variable, several high-performance glycoproteomics informatics strategies were identified. Deep analysis of the data revealed key performance-associated search parameters and led to recommendations for improved 'high-coverage' and 'high-accuracy' glycoproteomics search solutions. This study concludes that diverse software packages for comprehensive glycopeptide data analysis exist, points to several high-performance search strategies and specifies key variables that will guide future software developments and assist informatics decision-making in glycoproteomics. This analysis presents the results of a community-based evaluation of existing software for large-scale glycopeptide data analysis.

Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
- In this paper, we demonstrate how laser photodetachment mass spectrometry (LPMS) can be used to selectively detect C-13(-) ions in the presence of C-12(-) ions in a low energy ion beam. An isotopically enriched beam of carbon ions consisting of equal amounts of C-13(-) and 12C- ions was extracted from an ion source. The ions interacted with a laser beam in a collinear geometry over a distance of 70 cm. Residual atoms produced in the photodetachment process were detected in a neutral particle detector placed downstream of the collinear interaction region. By making use of the Doppler effect we were able to selectively photodetach C-13(-) ions. The number of detected C-13 atoms was 13 times larger than the number of detected C-12 atoms. The population of the excited, weakly bound D-2 excited state of the C- ion was depleted by the use of a second laser. This significantly reduced the background accompanying the signal arising from the photodetachment of the S-4 ground state C- ion. Different applications of the LPMS method will be discussed in the paper.

Radiative lifetimes of metastable states of negative ions

-
Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
- We present a technique for measuring the radiative lifetimes of metastable states of negative ions that involves the use of a heavy-ion storage ring. The method has been applied to investigate the radiative decay of the np(3) P-2(1/2) levels of Te-(n=5) and Se-(n=4) and the 3p(3) D-2 state of Si- for which the J=3/2 and 5/2 levels were unresolved. All of these states are metastable and decay primarily by emission of E2 and M1 radiation. Multi Configuration Dirac-Hartree-Fock calculations of rates for the transitions in Te- and Se- yielded lifetimes of 0.45 s and 4.7 s, respectively. The measured values agree well with these predicted values. In the case of the D-2 state of Si-, however, our measurement was only able to set a lower limit on the lifetime. The upper limit of the lifetime that can be measured with our apparatus is set by how long the ions can be stored in the ring, a limit determined by the rate of collisional detachment. Our lower limit of 1 min for the lifetime of the D-2 state is consistent with both the calculated lifetimes of 162 s for the D-2(3/2) level and 27.3 h for the D-2(5/2) level reported by O'Malley and Beck and 14.5 h and 12.5 h, respectively, from our Breit-Pauli calculations.

Electron-impact fragmentation of Cl-2(-)

In: Physical Review A. Atomic, Molecular, and Optical Physics. - 1050-2947 .- 1094-1622. ; 72:4, s. 042708-
-
Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
- A merged beam technique has been used to investigate the fragmentation of the Cl-2(-) ion in collisions with electrons over an energy range of 0-200 eV. We have measured absolute cross sections for detachment, detachment plus dissociation and dissociation processes. Over the energy range studied, the dominant breakup mechanism is dissociation. Dissociation is relatively enhanced in the e(-)+Cl-2(-) collision system due to the suppression of the normally dominant detachment process, as a result of the large difference between the equilibrium internuclear distances of the Cl-2 and Cl-2(-) ground state potential curves. A prominent structure is observed just above the threshold in the Cl-+Cl+e(-) dissociation channel. It is proposed that the structure is a resonance associated with production and rapid decay of an excited state of the doubly charged Cl-2(-) ion. A plausible mechanism for production of the di-anionic state based on an excitation plus capture process is suggested.

Double photodetachment from the Cl[-]ion

Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
- The correlated process involving the photodetachment of two electrons from the [Formula Presented] ion has been investigated over the photon energy range 20–45 eV. In the experiment, a beam of photons from the Advanced Light Source (ALS) was collinearly merged with a counterpropagating beam of [Formula Presented] ions from a sputter ion source. The [Formula Presented] ions produced in the interaction region were detected, and the normalized signal was used to monitor the relative cross section for the reaction. An absolute scale for the cross section was established by measuring the spatial overlap of the two beams and by determining the efficiency for collection and detection of the [Formula Presented] ions. The overall magnitude and shape of the measured cross section for this process agrees well with an R-matrix calculation. The calculation identifies the dominant mechanism leading to the production of the [Formula Presented] ion as being a direct nonresonant process involving the ejection of a pair of electrons from the valence shell. Less important is the indirect nonresonant process that involves the production and decay of core-excited and doubly excited states of the Cl atom in an intermediate step. Direct and indirect resonant mechanisms involving the excitation of a single [Formula Presented] core electron or more than one valence electron of the [Formula Presented] ion were found to be insignificant in the energy range studied.

Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
- We report on the first experimental study of the lifetime of a bound excited state of a negative ion. A new experimental technique was developed and used to measure the radiative lifetime of the 5p(5) P-2(1/2) level of Te-. The experiment was performed in a magnetic storage ring, where a laser beam was applied along one of the straight sections. In the experiment the population of the excited J=1/2 level was probed each time the Te- ions passed through the laser field. A decay curve was built up by sampling the population of the excited level of the Te- ions as a function of time after injection into the ring. A multiconfiguration Dirac-Hartree-Fock calculation was performed in conjunction with the experiment. The calculation yielded a radiative lifetime of 0.45 s, in excellent agreement with the measured value of 0.42(5) s.

Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
- This paper reports an experimental investigation of the electron impact detachment of C−4. We observe structure in the electron impact cross section for detaching a single electron from a C−4 cluster anion, which we attribute to the formation and decay of the C2−4 dianion. The system is energetically unstable and very rapidly decays via double autodetachment. The energy and width of the resonance were determined to be 8.8(5) eV and 1.4(5) eV, respectively, and the resonance lies 1.5(5) eV above the ground state of the neutral system. The experiment was conducted by merging monoenergetic electron and ion beams in the heavy ion storage ring CRYRING. The detachment channel was monitored by detecting neutral C4 fragments.

- Absolute cross sections for single and double detachment from H- following electron impact have been measured over a range of collision energies from the thresholds to 170 eV. The measurements were made using a magnetic storage ring. The ions in the ring were merged with a monoenergetic electron beam and neutral and positively charged fragments were detected. We cover larger energy ranges than in many of the previous experiments, and this is the first time both single and double detachment have been measured simultaneously. This allows us to present accurate ratios between the single and double detachment cross sections. On the basis of these ratio measurements we discuss possible mechanisms leading to double detachment.

Threshold behaviour in photodetachment into a final state with large negative polarizability

Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
- In a recent experiment, Lindahl et al. (Lindahl A. O. et al., Phys. Rev. Lett., 108 (2012) 033004) observed a new threshold behavior in the photodetachment of the potassium negative ion when the residual atom is left in the 5 (2)G state. Unfortunately the resonance close to threshold made it more difficult to apply the semi-classical model that was developed to describe the threshold behavior. In this paper we present a study of the threshold behavior of the 5 (2)G partial cross-section in the photodetachment of the sodium negative ion. The experiment was conducted using a collinear beams apparatus where the detection was performed using a resonance ionization scheme. We observe the same threshold behavior as in the previous experiment, but without any obfuscating resonance. The model derived in the previous paper is found to fit the observed cross-section up to 35 meV above threshold. The present experiment clearly demonstrates the threshold behaviour for the fundamental process of a free electron moving in the field of an atom with a large negative polarizability.

Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
- In this paper, we present an apparatus for studies into the photodetachment process of atomic negative ions. State-selective detection of the residual atom following the initial photodetachment step is achieved by combining resonant laser excitation of the photo-detached atom with electric field ionization. The resonance ionization technique in combination with a co-linear ion–laser beam geometry gives an experimental apparatus that has both high selectivity and sensitivity. In addition to measurements of a single selected partial photodetachment channel, the apparatus also can be used to study a manifold of photodetachment channels in which the residual atom is left in a high-lying Rydberg state and for investigation of the double electron-detachment process. Ion-optical simulations in SIMION are used to illustrate the operation of the apparatus for studying such processes. Successful performance of the apparatus against the simulation is demonstrated by a high resolution study of the photodetachment of cesium, where the sharp s-wave threshold of the photodetachment processes leaving the residual atom in the excited 6p state was investigated.

Observation of the 2S1/2 metastable state in Pt−

Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
- We have experimentally investigated the structure of the Pt− ion using laser photodetachment threshold spectroscopy. The experiment was conducted using a collinear laser-ion beam apparatus, in which the residual atoms created in the photodetachment process were detected. A p-wave threshold was observed in the photo- detachment spectrum at an energy of 6851͑13͒ cm−1. We conclude that this onset originates from a photode- tachment transition in which the initial state of Pt− is the previously unobserved 5d106s 2S1/2 state and the final state of Pt is the 5d96s 3D3 ground state. The excitation energy of the 2S1/2 state is determined to be 10 289͑13͒ cm−1. This value can be compared with a multiconfiguration Dirac-Fock calculation performed by Thøgersen et al. ͓Phys. Rev. Lett. 76, 2870 ͑1996͔͒, which yielded an excitation energy of 11 301 cm−1. Our data show no indication of the presence of any other state of Pt−. We conclude that the structure of the Pt− ion is now fully known.

Experimental studies of partial photodetachment cross sections in K- below the K(7 2P) threshold

Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
- A collinear beams apparatus has been used to determine photodetachment cross sections for K− in the photon energy range 4.250–4.360 eV. State-selective detection, utilizing a resonance ionization scheme, was applied to measure partial cross sections for those channels which leave the residual K atoms in the excited 7 2S, 5 2F, and 5 2G states. The energy region studied encompassed the openings of the aforementioned channels, as well as the channel that leaves the K atom in the 7 2P state. Two previously unobserved resonances were seen in all three partial cross sections between the K(5 2G) and K(7 2P) thresholds. It is shown that a more reliable determination of resonance parameters can be made if the same resonances are observed in several channels. In the region below the K(5 2F) threshold, three previously observed resonances were investigated [Kiyan et al. Phys. Rev. Lett. 84 5979 (2000)]. A greatly increased modulation of the signal was obtained by detecting in the K(7 2S) channel instead of the K(5 2S) channel used in the previous study. Furthermore, the shapes of the cross sections in the threshold regions are discussed. A detailed description of the apparatus and the experimental procedure employed is presented in the paper.

Observation of thresholds and overlapping resonances below the 10(2)P(1/2) and P-2(3/2) thresholds in the photodetachment of Cs

Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
- A collinear beam apparatus has been used to study photodetachment of Cs-. Partial cross sections were measured using state-selective detection based on a resonance ionization scheme. Several resonances were observed in the Cs(10(2)S), Cs(6 2F), Cs(6 2G), and Cs(6 2H) final-state channels below the Cs(10(2)P3/2) channel opening. A model was developed to account for the interference between overlapping resonances. This model is essentially a generalization of the Fano [U. Fano, Phys. Rev. 124, 1866 (1961)] and Shore [B. W. Shore, Phys. Rev. 171, 43 (1968)] parametrizations for single resonances. Resonance parameters were extracted by fitting the model to the data sets. The openings of the Cs(10(2)S) and Cs(6 2F) channels, where the polarizabilities of the atomic states are large and positive, showed rapid onsets. In the case of the Cs(6(2)G) and Cs(6(2)H) channels, on the other hand, the photodetachment cross sections increased slowly with energy. For the Cs(6(2)H) channel this is the expected behavior, since it is the result of a large and negative polarizability of the 6(2)H state. In addition, the excitation of the Cs(6(2)H) state with respect to the Cs ground state was found to be 28 356.3(2) cm(-1), in agreement with a previous experiment.

Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
- We report on the first experimental observation of a new threshold behavior observed in the 5 2G partial channel in photodetachment of K-. It arises from the repulsive polarization interaction between the detached electron and the residual K(5 2G) atom, which has a large negative dipole polarizability. In order to account for the observation in the K(5 2G) channel, we have developed a semiclassical model that predicts an exponential energy dependence for the cross section. The measurements were made with collinear laser-ion beams and a resonance ionization detection scheme.

- We demonstrate that the technique of laser photodetachment spectroscopy on atomic negative ions can be used as a sensitivity enhancement tool in mass spectrometry, useful for suppressing both isotopic as well as molecular isobaric interferences. In the experiment a beam of negative ions and a laser beam are merged in a collinear geometry and the wavelength of the laser is tuned across the photodetachment threshold region. Due to the large differential Doppler shifts associated with the fast moving ions of different masses, it is possible to selectively detach ions of certain isotopes while leaving others unaffected. By choosing co-propagating laser and ion beams, the heavier isotopes of an element can be selectively detached, whereas counter propagating beams can be used to detach the lighter ones. In this paper we demonstrate the feasibility of the method in an experiment that was designed to selectively detach either 32S− or 34S− ions. The isotopic ratio of 34S/32S was enhanced by a factor of >50 over the natural value. This factor can be improved by using a laser that is better adapted to the measurement and by improving the vacuum conditions in order to further suppress the collisional background. The applicability of this technique to selectivity enhancement in measurements of the abundances of rare or ultra-rare isotopes is discussed.

-
Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
- A neutral particle detector is presented, in which the traditionally used target material, indium tin oxide (ITO), is replaced by graphene. The graphene-based detector enables collinear photodetachment measurements at a significantly shorter wavelength of light down to 230nm compared to ITO-based detectors, which are limited at 335 nm. Moreover, the background signal from the photoelectric effect is drastically reduced when using graphene. The graphene based detector, reaching 1.7 eV further into the UV energy range, allows increased possibilities for photodetachment studies of negatively charged atoms, molecules, and clusters.

A collinear angle-resolved photoelectron spectrometer

Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
- In the present paper we describe a newly designed collinear photoelectron spectrometer for angular distribution measurements. We will henceforth refer to this instrument by the acronym PEARLS (PhotoElectron Angle-Resolved Linear Spectrometer). The design was motivated by the desire to collect electrons emitted from an extended linear source consisting of collinear photon and ion beams at a synchrotron radiation site. The electrons could be produced in either photoionization or photodetachment events. The primary advantage of a collinear beams geometry is that the effective interaction volume can be made much larger than that obtainable with a crossed beams geometry, which has been used in many earlier photoelectron spectroscopic studies. The present apparatus is capable of collecting electrons over a beam source length of 22 cm. The electrons are detected using Channel Electron Multipliers (CEMs). There are 4 detector planes placed perpendicular to the direction of the beam source, where each plane contains 4 CEMs. The use of all 4 detector planes with a total of 16 CEMs enhances the photoelectron signal, which is important at a synchrotron radiation site where the photon flux is typically low. If photoelectrons of different energies are emitted, the design allows for electrostatic energy analyzers to be placed in front of the CEMs. We have performed a photodetachment experiment to demonstrate the functionality of the PEARLS apparatus using a pulsed laser as the photon source. In particular, we have measured the angular distribution of photoelectrons ejected from Ag- at two different photon energies. © 2017 Elsevier B.V.

Photoelectron angular distributions in photodetachment from P

Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
- The angular distributions of electrons ejected in laser photodetachment of the P- ion have been studied in the photon energy range of 0.95-3.28 eV using a photoelectron spectrometer designed to accommodate a source consisting of collinearly overlapping photon and negative ion beams. We observe the value of the asymmetry parameter beta starting at zero near the threshold, falling to almost -1 about 0.5 eV above the threshold and eventually rising to a positive value. The experimental data has been fitted to a simplified model of the Cooper-Zare formula which yields a qualitative understanding of the quantum interference between the outgoing s and d waves representing the free electron. The present results are also compared with previous results for other elements involving p-electron photodetachment.
