Scientific Description
This network of FT-ICR mass spectrometers is operated by the FR 3624 federation. Currently the network consists of six instruments located in six sites: Lille, Metz, Orsay, Palaiseau and Paris. The network aims to provide access to high magnetic field FT-ICR mass spectrometers to scientists with a need for very high resolution and very high mass accuracy measurements. The operation of the infrastructure is funded by the CNRS and by the local establishments. Access is provided to the scientific community based on a constantly open call for projects aimed mainly at the French scientific community but also open to European and extra-European projects. The projects are reviewed within one month by the review panel and access to an instrument should be provided within three months.
