1. A method of determining the ratio of mass to charge of an ion comprising:

  • a. pulsed ionizing intact analyte ions from a sample to be analyzed;

    b. simultaneously i.) damping said intact ions to reduce energy spread of said ions substantially without fragmentation, and ii.) linearly accelerating said intact ions to provide a substantially continuous beam thereof; and

    c. determining ratio of mass to charge of said ions.
