An investigation of the mass spectrum of titanium tetrachloride prepared from both commercial titanium dioxide and titanium minerals has been carried out, using a 180° Nier-type mass spectrometer. Values for the relative abundances of the titanium and chlorine isotopes have been found. Measurements of the singly ionized trichloride group show that any variation in the relative abundances of the isotopes of titanium contained in these samples must be less than one per cent.

The mass spectrum of CD3—CH2—CH=CH2 has been measured in a 90° Nier-type mass spectrometer using 50-volt electrons. High resolution nuclear magnetic resonance measurements showed that the methyl group was fully deuterated and that there were no D-atoms located elsewhere in the molecule. This result was supported by infrared analysis. A comparison of the mass spectrum with that of CH3—CH2—CH=CH2 shows that the total intensities of each group of C4, C3, C2, and C1 fragments are the same for both compounds. This indicates equal probabilities of C—C bond rupture in the dissociation of the corresponding parent ions. The distribution of fragments within the groups in the deuterated compound shows, however, that extensive migration of the D-atoms has occurred during ionization. Migration is also evident at much lower electron energies (approximately 15 ev.). The thermal cracking patterns of the two compounds, as determined by gas chromatographic analyses, are very similar.

A direct action shunt selector has been designed that pre-selects the appropriate shunt so that widely different mass spectrometer ion currents can be recorded linearly on a standard chart. In conjunction with a linear direct current amplifier and a Leeds and Northrup Speedomax pen recorder, this unit allows rapid and accurate recording of a given mass spectrum, which can be scanned by varying either the magnetic field or the ion accelerating potential of the mass spectrometer. When used with a 180° Nier type mass spectrometer with well stabilized circuits, a precision of ± 0.2% in measuring the ratio of [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] was obtained. Also, samples of xenon were investigated and the abundances of the isotopes determined.

A mass spectrometer control and recording system has been built which utilizes synchronous incremental stepping of the magnet current during the scanning of the mass spectrum with time-locked digitizing of the output, producing successive scans as similar time series and preserving the frequency spectral content of each scan. The digital output is recorded on magnetic tape and processed later on a computer. A new method of fitting polynomials to the reduced peak heights is described, which yields a measuring precision of about 0.06% at one standard deviation on 10–20 scans of the spectrum.Some studies of fractionation are described which illustrate the large errors which may occur from this effect.
