    Notes: Abstract Stoichiometric and non-stoichiometric negatively charged CO2 cluster ions have been produced in a crossed neutral cluster/electron beam ion source. The abundance and stability of these ions have been studied with a double focussing sector field mass spectrometer. The observed abundance anomalies (“magic numbers”) in the mass spectra of (CO2) n − and (CO2) n O− ions correlate with corresponding small and large metastable fractions of these ions (for loss of one CO2 unit). Variation of the measured metastable fractions as a function ofn are related to corresponding changes in the monomer binding energies. In addition, we have observed for the first time (CO2) n O 2 − ions (i.e. at electron energies above 8 eV with an energy resonance at about 14 eV) and we discuss possible production mechanisms for these ions. Relative electron attachment cross sections have been determined in the energy regime O〈E≦20 eV for (CO2) n − , (CO2) n O− and (CO2) n O 2 − withn=1 to 20. The shape of the cross section function for (CO2) n O− is strongly dependent on the cluster sizen.

    Notes: Abstract Mixed ionized clusters have been produced in a supersonic nozzle beam experiment by attachment of stagnant cations (i.e. NO+ and Xe+) to neutral van der Waals clusters (i.e.Ar n ) within a Nier type ion source. This new ionization technique leads to less fragmentation than electron impact ionization and the measured cluster distributions exhibit icosahedral shell and subshell closures which have not been detected in the case of electron impact of Ar n -clusters ionization so far. Additionally, the obtained appearance energies and metastable fractions give insight into the production mechanism and the stability of the resulting ions.

    Notes: Abstract Electron attachment to SO2 clusters formed by nozzle expansion was investigated (n up to 8) in a molecular-beam electron-ionization mass-spectrometer system. Electron ionization of SO2 clusters was also studied (n up to 18) showing no pronounced structure in the mass spectra and no strong dependence on electron energy, the dominant positive ion being the (SO2) n + series. Also present but less abundant are the fragment ion series (SO2) n SO+, (SO2) n S+ and (SO2) n O+ with decreasing intensities in that order. The dominant negative ion is (SO2) n − . The homologous series (SO2) n O− and (SO2) n SO− are less abundant, the series (SO2) n S− has not been observed at all (except SO2·S− produced in the background gas via secondary processes). The negative ion mass spectra show a strong dependence on electron energy due to a rich resonance like structure of the attachment cross sections involved. These attachment cross sections have been determined (up to 40 eV) and they show significant differences for the different homologous series. The most striking feature is that for instance (SO2) n SO− ions do not show any signal at the first main resonance of SO− from SO2. Likewise (SO2) n O− ions only show a strongly diminished signal at the first main resonance of O− from SO2. This is in contrast to results in O2, CO2 and N2O. Conversely, (SO2) n − ions show — besides peaks at the position of the first and second O− resonance — additional resonances below and above these peaks. In addition, (SO2) 5 − and larger ones show a zero energy peak consisting of stoichiometric SO2 cluster ions similar to observations in O2, CO2 and H2O. The attachment cross section of S− from SO2 has been found to show an additional previously undetected peak at ∼1 eV. Moreover, the present study revealed the existence of a S n − (n up to 8) series being produced with nearly zero energy electrons via volume and surface processes in and around the ion source.
