The pick-up cross-section depends strongly on the dipole moment of the molecule. For non-polar molecules, earlier measurements of pick-up cross-sections ranging from 2000 to 4300 Å2 were ponfirmed; for polar systems, however, cross-sections between 6400 and 8100 Å2 were observed. In both cases a linear cross-section versus mass dependence is observed.Read More
