The 3rd International Conference on Ion Formation from Organic
Solids (IFOS III) was held at the University of Munster, September
16-18, 1985. The conference was attended by 60 invited scientists
from all over the world. Of the 43 papers which were presented, 40
are included in these proceedings. The aim of IFOS III was to
promote the exchange of results and new ideas between scientists
actively working in the field of mass spectrometry of involatile
materials. Various aspects of the ion formation process -
realization and optimization, theoretical understanding and
analytical application -were treated, as well as instrumental
developments. Some emphasis was placed on recent developments in
time-of-flight and Fourier transform ion cyclotron resonance mass
spectrometry, and its impact on the mass spectrometry of involatile
materials. The most important goal of the conference was to combine
facets of the understanding of the most complex ion formation
processes with the many different aspects of its analytical
application. The participants came from a wide variety of different
fields, including pure and applied physics and chemistry, medicine,
pharmacy, and space research. Finally, on behalf of all the
conference participants, I would like to thank Dr. W. Sichtermann
and :\1iss I. Bekemeier for the perfect preparation and technical
organization of the conference. The next conference in this series,
IFOS IV, is planned for the autumn of 1987, in Munster.
