Structure, reactivity, and energetics of covalently bound carbon cluster ions, C sub 5 sup + to C sub 11 sup + : Experiment and theory

Laser ablation from a rotating, translating graphite rod is used to create a broad distribution of internally energized carbon cluster ions C{sub n}{sup +}. These energized clusters are accelerated, size selected by a magnet, and allowed to undergo unimolecular decay in a field-free region. The deca...

Description
Summary:Laser ablation from a rotating, translating graphite rod is used to create a broad distribution of internally energized carbon cluster ions C{sub n}{sup +}. These energized clusters are accelerated, size selected by a magnet, and allowed to undergo unimolecular decay in a field-free region. The decay products are mass and energy analyzed by a high-resolution electrostatic analyzer. In this work they are interested in clusters in the range 5 {
