The term “high pressure” refers to an operational (gas) background pressure in a vacuum chamber holding a mass analyzer at or above about 50 mTorr, such as between about 50 mTorr to about 100 Torr (thus, the high pressure is in the mass analyzer). In some embodiments, the vacuum chamber pressure with a mass analyzer is between about 50 mTorr and about 10 Torr, or between about 50 mTorr to about 1 Torr or about 2 Torr, e.g., at or under 5 Torr. In some embodiments, the high pressure can be about 50 mTorr, about 60 mTorr, about 70 mTorr, about 80 mTorr, about 90 mTorr, about 100 mTorr, about 150 mTorr, about 200 mTorr, about 250 mTorr, about 300 mTorr, about 350 mTorr, about 400 mTorr, about 450 mTorr, about 500 mTorr, about 600 mTorr, about 700 mTorr, about 800 mTorr, about 900 mTorr, about 1000 mTorr, about 1500 Torr or about 2000 Torr.
