Mass-to-Charge Ratio
The abbreviation m/z is used to denote the dimensionless quantity formed by dividing the mass number of an ion by its charge number. It has long been called the mass-to-charge ratio although m is not the ionic mass nor is z a multiple or the elementary (electronic) charge e. (from IUPAC Compendium) (NCI Thesaurus)
