The experiment was performed with the chronospectroscopy mode, every spectrun was acquired using an acquisition time of 9 millisecond. The submitted spectrum is a collection of 10 spectra. Melamine is really sensitive to beam damage, after 0.4 seconds the origianl melamine spectra is transformed into the spectrun submitted here. Analyst: Susana Trasobares. Temperature: Room.
