Radiochemistry
Mass spectrometry is an analytical technique used to measure the mass-to-charge ratio of ions, allowing for the identification and quantification of different substances based on their mass. This technique is vital for understanding the composition of materials, tracing isotopic signatures, and analyzing complex mixtures, which connects to various methods of production, dating, and forensic analysis.
