    Abstract: An integrated system for liquid separation and electrospray ionization includes an emitter-enabled capillary column including an emitter portion and a column portion; and a retractable protective sleeve for covering and/or supporting the emitter portion along at least a portion of its axis. The protective sleeve is mounted around the emitter-enabled capillary column. The retractable protective sleeve is moveable to an extended position wherein a tip of the emitter portion is covered by the protective sleeve. A resilient member is provided to bias the protective sleeve towards the extended position. The protective sleeve is enclosed and moveable within an outer electrically conductive sheath adapted for insertion within a holder having a high-voltage contact point. The sheath is adapted to contact the high-voltage contact point and provide an electrical connection to enable the emitter-enabled capillary column to receive a high voltage. The sheath has a recess to receive the high-voltage contact point.

    Abstract: A method for accurately correcting the age of columbite-tantalite by using double-reference-material includes: using at least two kinds of columbite-tantalite with known ages as reference materials; determining the positive correlation between the lead-uranium ion ratio and the uranium ion ratio of the columbite-tantalite based on test results of a lead-uranium ion ratio ( 206 Pb + 238 U 16 ⁢ O + ) Cstd ⁢ 1 and a uranium ion ratio ( 238 U 16 ⁢ O 2 + 238 U 16 ⁢ O + ) Cstd ⁢ 1 of the reference material 1, correcting the correlation by reference material 2; calculating the lead-uranium mass ratio ( 206 Pb 238 U ) un of the columbite-tantalite sample to be tested by using the corrected correlation; finally, determining the uranium-lead age UPbtun of the columbite-tantalite sample to be tested based on the lead-uranium mass ratio ( 206 Pb 238 U ) un . The method is fast and reliable, and greatly increases the accuracy in calculating the age of columbite-tantalite, and the method represents the latest international test design and calibration method in this field, and is of great practical value.

    Abstract: A nebuliser outlet assembly comprises an inlet end and an outlet end, and a first channel (24) arranged between the inlet end and the outlet end, wherein the first channel is configured to receive a capillary. The nebuliser outlet assembly comprises a first part (40) and one or more second parts (50), wherein the one or more second parts are removably attachable to the first part. The nebuliser outlet assembly is configured such that the first channel is formed from the first part and the one or more second parts when the one or more second parts are attached to the first part. The first part comprises an open-sided channel that corresponds to the first channel for at least some of its length. The nebuliser outlet assembly is configured such that when the one or more second parts are removed from the first part, said open-sided channel is exposed.
