ORANGE BOOK DEFINITION
Accelerating voltage scan

A method of producing a momentum (mass) spectrum in a magnetic deflection instrument by varying the accelerating voltage. This scan can also be used in conjunction with a fixed radial electric field to produce an ion kinetic energy spectrum.

IUPAC Orange Book Chapter 12


GOLD BOOK DEFINITION
Accelerating voltage scan

http://goldbook.iupac.org/A00050.html

This is an alternative method of producing a momentum (mass) spectrum in magnetic deflection instruments by varying the accelerating voltage. This scan can also be used, in conjunction with a fixed radial electric field, to produce an ion kinetic energy spectrum.
