Mass spectrometric sampling of flames: how ionic equilibria in flames produce sampling falsifications and “fake” ions, but provide kinetic and thermodynamic data on the reaction occurring

TLDR
In this paper, it was shown that if a positive ion reacts exothermally in a reversible reaction with a time constant briefer than ≈ 0.5 µs, that reaction will be equilibrated early in the flame and if the orifice is small, the equilibrium will be just fast enough to shift position to that for a temperature reduced in both the thermal boundary layer around the inlet, and in accelerating to the speed of sound.

The effects of applied electric fields on the mass spectrometric sampling of ions in atmospheric-pressure flames

TL;DR: In this article, an atmospheric pressure flames has been sampled continuously through a small orifice into a vacuum system housing a mass spectrometer, and the total ion currents were measured as a function of both the voltage difference between burner and nozzle, and also between the nozzle and the collecting needle.

Kinetic and thermodynamic measurements of the reactions of the positive ions, Mn + and MnOH + , formed by adding manganese to fuel-rich flames of either H 2 + O 2 or C 2 H 2 + O 2

TL;DR: In this article, mass spectrometric sampling of flat, fuel-rich flames of H 2 or C 2 H 2, burning at 1.5 p.p.m. and at 1800-2650 K, has revealed that the ions MnOH + and Mn+ are present in such flames, when seeded with amounts of manganese less than 1 p.m., provided it was hotter than 2100 K. Free electrons were the only negatively charged species.
