Precise mass measurements of short-lived exotic nuclei are very important for the understanding of basic nuclear structure physics and astrophysical nucleosynthesis in nature, as well as for the test and the development of theoretical nuclear mass models. At GSI, the Isochronous Mass Spectrometry (IMS) dedicated to mass measurements of short-lived nuclides was developed. In this contribution, the IMS technique is briefly reviewed. Recently, the first large-scale measurement on the 238 U fission fragment was done successfully. The measured mass values are in excellent agreement with the recent Penning trap data, however, they show a systematical deviation from the values in the latest atomic mass evaluation. Some representative results from this experiment will be presented, including their impact on nuclear structure physics and astrophysical r-process nucleosynthesis.

Electron ionisation (EI) and fast atom bombardment (FAB) mass spectral fragmentations of nine 2,4-(and 2,1-) disubstituted o-( m- and p-)nitro-(chloro- and bromo-)-2-thiocytosinium halides are investigated. Fragmentation pathways, whose elucidation is assisted by accurate mass measurements and metastable transitions [EI-mass spectrometry (MS)], as well as FAB/collision-induced dissociation (CID) mass spectra measurements are discussed. The correlations between the abundances of the (C11H10N4SO2)+1–3; (C11H10N3SCl)+4–6 and (C11H10N3SBr)+7–9 ions and the selected fragment ions (EI-MS), as well as (C18H16N5SO4)+1–3; (C18H16N3SCl2)+4–6 and (C18H16N3SBr2) + 7–9 ions and the selected ions (C7H6NO2)+1–3; (C7H6Cl)+ 4–6; (C7H6Br)+ 7–9 (FAB-MS) are discussed. The data obtained can be used for distinguishing isomers.
