  1. If the molecular ion is absent, we give the detected maximal fragments instead. Note that several maximal fragments may be detected for one substance. The last column indicates the ranking of the correct molecular ion, if reconstructed by our method, or which molecular ion(s) is (are) reconstructed (if any)
