Negative ions are important in many areas of science and technology, eg, in interstellar
chemistry, for accelerator-based radionuclide dating, and in anti-matter research. They are …

This roadmap article highlights recent advances, challenges and future prospects in studies
of the dynamics of molecules and clusters in the gas phase. It comprises nineteen …

We have developed an experimental technique to study charge-and energy-flow processes
in sub-eV collisions between oppositely charged, internally cold, ions of atoms, molecules …

We apply near-threshold laser photodetachment to characterize the rotational quantum level
distribution of OH-ions stored in the cryogenic ion-beam storage ring DESIREE at Stockholm …

The new Cryogenic Storage Ring at the Max Planck Institute for Nuclear Physics
(Heidelberg, Germany) has recently become operational. One of the main research areas …

The phenomenon of power law decays in molecular beams is reviewed. The transition from
a canonical to a microcanonical description of the decay is analyzed, and the appearance of …

On the millisecond to second time scale, stored beams of diatomic carbon anions C 2− from
a sputter ion source feature unimolecular decay of yet unexplained origin by electron …

We have studied the stability of the smallest long-lived all carbon molecular dianion (C 7 2-)
in new time domains and with a single ion at a time using a cryogenic electrostatic ion-beam …

We describe a merged beams experiment to study ion-neutral collisions at the Cryogenic
Storage Ring of the Max Planck Institute for Nuclear Physics in Heidelberg, Germany. We …

The properties of atomic negative ions are to a large extent determined by electron-electron
correlation which makes them an ideal testing ground for atomic many-body physics. In this …
