    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; DESIREE; microchannel plate; clusters; spontaneous decay; small metal cluster anions; silver; copper; gold; carbon dianions; fragmentation; vibrational autodetachment; DESIREE; mikrokanalplattor; kluster; spontana sönderfall; små metallklusteranjoner; silver; koppar; guld; kol di-anjoner; fragmentering; Physics; fysik;

    Abstract : This thesis presents instrumentation developments and measurements performed at the Double ElectroStatic Ion Ring ExpEriment, DESIREE, at Stockholm University. DESIREE operates at cryogenic temperatures ~13 K, with very low background pressures of ~10-14mbar, allowing the observation of stored ions to long times of tens of seconds and longer. READ MORE

  2. 2. The Curious Case of Hot Metal Clusters : Spontaneous decay of excited, small silver and copper cluster anions in DESIREE

    Author : Emma Anderson; Henning Schmidt; Daniel Harding; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Physics; fysik;

    Abstract : Clusters anions are complex systems which, when formed with high internal energies, can decay via fragmentation and/or electron loss and may also cool via photon emission (radiative cooling). By studying the spontaneous decay mechanisms of small metal clusters, we can gain insight into the structure and properties of these systems. READ MORE
