Short summary
We introduce a custom-built chamber (known as an IMR) for use with a Chemical Ionization Mass Spectrometry (CIMS) gas measurement instrument. The IMR shows large improvements compared to previous designs in reducing non-real signal in the instrument, reducing uncertainties for trace gas studies in the laboratory and the field. We characterize this new IMR and demonstrate its use in analyzing air masses of unknown composition during a field campaign, reporting concentrations of important gases.
