| Abstract: | This paper discusses several current research areas in fundamental cluster science. Delayed ionization of the Met-Car, the study and synthesis of novel cluster materials, and solvation of atmospherically relevant clusters with water are all currently under investigation. The delayed ionization experiments show good agreement with a thermionic emission model. Supermagic Al13- clusters are found to react with CH3I to form new stable clusters. The effects of water solvation on excited SO2 and HBr clusters are examined with the pump-probe technique. All of these topics give insight into the fundamental physics and chemistry of clusters and provide relevant information to real world problems. | |
