Metric Options: CountsSelecting the 1-year or 3-year option will change the metrics count to percentiles, illustrating how an article or review compares to other articles or reviews within the selected time period in the same journal. Selecting the 1-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year. Selecting the 3-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year plus the two years prior.
Example: if you select the 1-year option for an article published in 2019 and a metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019. If you select the 3-year option for the same article published in 2019 and the metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019, 2018 and 2017.

Article Description
Using a two sector field mass spectrometer in combination with a crossed beams ion source we have obtained direct experimental evidence that C60 fragment ions such as C58, C56, C54,… produced by electron impact ionization of C60 may be formed by unimolecular decay of the C60 parent ion involving sequential loss of C2. Moreover, by comparing experimental and theoretical breakdown graphs the overriding conclusion is that in the case of Cz+56 production (with z=1,2,3) sequential loss of two C2 units dominates over the loss of a single C4 unit.
