    Notes: Singly charged argon cluster ions produed by electron impact ionization of a neutral argon cluster beam are found to decay in the metastable time regime by a new mechanism leading to the ejection of "magic'' numbers of neutral argon atoms. The measured dependence of this new decay process on (i) the electron energy, (ii) cluster size and cluster properties, and (iii) the time since ion formation gives insight into the unique mechanism and the nature of this process. At a well-defined threshold energy of ca. 27 eV, the magic number loss mechanism occurs simultaneously with the well-known single monomer evaporation process which proceeds at all energies. Importantly, the new mechanism is the first known example of cluster ion metastability showing an exponential dependence on time, providing further evidence that the precursor parent cluster ion is produced in a specific energy state.

    Notes: Abstract Electron impact ionization of propane (C3H8) was studied using the ion beam deflection technique and a double focussing mass spectrometer in conjunction with a recently developed correction procedure that accounts for discrimination due to the initial kinetic energy of fragment ions. The relative corrected partial ionization cross sections for the production of C3H 8 + , C3H 7 + , C3H 6 + , C3H 5 + , C3H 4 + , C3H 3 + , C3H 2 + , C3H+, C 3 + ; C2H 5 + , C2H 4 + , C2H 3 + , C2H 2 + , C2H+, C 2 + ; CH 3 + , CH 2 + , CH+, C+; C3H 5 2+ , C3H 4 2+ , C3H 3 2+ and C3H 2 2+ were determined from threshold up to 950 eV. Absolute partial ionization cross sections were obtained by charge weighted summing of all the observed partial ionization cross sections and by normalizing to a recent accurate determination of the total ionization cross section at 100 eV by Djuric et al. 1991. The absolute total ionization cross section curve obtained is in excellent agreement in shape and magnitude with the low energy data (〈200 eV) of Djuric et al. 1991 and the high energy data points of Schram et al. 1966.

    Notes: Abstract Stoichiometric and non-stoichiometric, positive and negative oxygen cluster ions (n up to 70) have been produced in a crossed neutral beam/electron beam ion source. The abundance and stability of the ions formed have been analyzed with a double focussing sector field mass spectrometer in a series of experiments. Positive and negative ion mass spectra observed exhibit distinct abundance anomalies, however, at different cluster sizes. Abundance maxima and minima correlate with correspondingly small and large metastable fractions of (O2) n + and (O2) n − ions, respectively. (O2) n + ions may also lose up top=(n−1) monomers by collision induced dissociation with monotonously decreasing probability with increasingp. Metastable fractions determined for (O2) n − ions produced with appr. zero eV electrons are in general larger than those for ions produced with appr. 7 eV electrons. (O2) n − ions are also observed to decay via autodetachment, with lifetimes increasing with increasing cluster size. Finally, here we were able to prove that an apparent loss of the monomer fragment O (and higher homologues) observed in the metastable time regime is due to ordinary metastable monomer evaporation in the acceleration region. Moreover, we will also present here some new data and interpretation concerning the electron attachment cross section function for O2 clusters.

    Notes: Abstract Production and stability of Ar n +* ions (withn up to 420) formed by electron impact ionization of a supersonic Ar cluster beam were investigated with a double focussing sector field mass spectrometer. The present study confirms previous magic number determinations up to the 4th icosahedral shell. A systematic study of metastable dissociations (monomer evaporation, magic number evaporation) for singly charged cluster ions as a function of cluster size, internal excitation energy and time elapsed since ion formation gives new insight into the ionization process and subsequent reactions of the ions formed. At a well-defined threshold energy ofca. 28 eV, the magic number loss mechanism occurs simultaneously with the well known single monomer evaporation process which proceeds at all energies. The new mechanism is the first known example of cluster ion metastability showing an exponential dependence on time, providing further evidence that the precursor parent cluster ion is produced in a specific energy state.
