Gas-phase inert neutral species that are introduced in a mass spectrometer to increase an ion's internal energy via an ion/neutral species process, e.g. [[CID|collision-induced dissociation]]. The synonym '[[Target Gas|target gas]]' is not recommended. If the ion/neutral species process is aimed at relaxation of ion's internal and/or translational energy, the term [[Buffer Gas|buffer gas]] should be used.
