Abstract
In order to improve precision in mass spectrometry that represents signals as waveforms, methods were generated to observe whether or not it is possible to change the shape of a wave by manipulating the shape of the detector. The detector model used in this simulation originated from a charge detection mass spectrometer and was built in Simion. By utilizing different analytical techniques such as image charge methods and FFTs, a signal was generated and analyzed. The coefficient of variation was then used to assess the quality of precision. This research will create a new area of signal changing research to further explore within the scientific community and will lead to new ways of improving precision in instruments that represent signals as waveforms.
