The cover picture shows infrared photodissociation action spectra of hydrated divalent calcium ions. Electrospray ionization is used to produce the calcium ions which are then introduced into the ion cell of a Fourier-transform ion cyclotron resonance mass spectrometer where their infrared photodiss
