| DRAFT DEFINITION |
| Stable ion |
|---|
| An ion with internal energy below the threshold for dissociation or isomerization (not sufficiently excited) which therefore does not dissociate, rearrange nor react spontaneously when flying inside a mass spectrometer reaching the detector in its intact form (configuration and connectivity). |
| Considered between 2004 and 2006 but not included in the 2006 PAC submission |
| This is an unofficial draft definition presented for information and comment. |

See additional comments on the Stable ion discussion page (archive of discussion between 2004 and 2006) |
Orange Book Entry
An ion which is not sufficiently excited to dissociate spontaneously into a Daughter Ion and associated neutral fragment(s) or to react further before reaching the detector.
