I really need some help understanding mass spectrometry, this is what i know mass spec is used to find out the relative attomic mass and relative molecular mass of a compound or atom, there are 5 stages a sample goes through vaporisation,ionisation,acceleration,deflection and detection i understand what goes on, on the first 2 stages but I'm confused about the last 3, at the end of the process, the trace hits the detector where lines r shown. Could some 1 please help me understand mass spec i'll b extreemly greatful.
