This National Science Foundation project grant of $237,745 awarded on September 1, 2022 through August 31, 2025 under the Mathematical and Physical Sciences program (CFDA 47.049) will support the development of a variable temperature ion trap mass spectrometer at Stony Brook University. The mass spectrometer will facilitate isomer-selective thermochemical, structural, and spectroscopic characterization of bimolecular interactions to advance research in biochemistry, medicinal chemistry, inorganic chemistry, organometallic catalysis, and physical chemistry. Specifically, the instrument isolates analytes using mass spectrometry and generates weakly-bound or transient biomolecular complexes through variable temperature ion traps. It also directly integrates electron scattering and vibrational spectroscopy techniques to determine intermolecular structure and interactions in samples. This platform is intended to enhance research and education at Stony Brook University and provide accessibility for nearby institutions.
