Laboratory studies of electric-field collisional activation (ECA) of HSO4(-)(H2SO4)n cluster ions are examined. The apparatuses utilized in these studies are described. It is observed that ECA of HSO4(-)(H2SO4)n occurs via a HSO4(-) + H2SO4 channel and a HSO4(-)SO3 + H2O channel. Mass spectra and a graph of fractional abundances of negative ions are studied. The data reveal that mixed cluster ions of the type HSO4(-)(H2SO4)1 X with X having a mass of 81 + or - 1 amu are fragments formed by ECA of ambient HSO4(-)(H2SO4)n clusters during ion sampling into the mass spectrometer.
