x , and C 11 H 2+ x ), as shown in Figure . These channels indicate the lifetimes of the excited FLU trication (FLU 3+ ) and tetracation (FLU 4+ ). The lifetimes of these channels have similar values and show similar trends, as those observed in monocationic fragments for the (1,0)→(1,1) and (1,1)→(1,2) channels (Figure ). This might indicate that all these fragments are formed through a set of similar excited states of the di-and trications.
