Description
Summary:General difficulties related to experimental determination of charged cluster masses M i in liquid media are stressed (normally M i strongly exceed typical masses m 0 of ambient solvent molecules, M i ≫ m 0 ). This well-known feature deteriorates the product ω i τ vital in different resonance phenomena by shifting it to the domain ω i τ ≤1 which is hardly suitable for the experiment. Here ω i is one of the typical frequencies used to measure the mass M i in the liquid (e.g., the cyclotron resonance frequency) and τ is the relevant relaxation time. Discussed in the paper are the details of the scenario allowing to extract experimental data on M i under the conditions ω i τ ≤1 where most usual techniques are very difficult to apply.
