The field of nanoscience was pioneered in the 1980s with the groundbreaking research on
clusters, which later led to the discovery of fullerenes. Handbook of Nanophysics: Clusters …

In this review we describe the development and current status of free clusters studied using
core-level spectroscopies. This topic ranges from simple model systems, such as rare gas …

In this paper, the features of the process of argon radiation mixed with molecular and atomic
impurities in condensing supersonic jets are studied experimentally. The mixture particles …

Auger electron spectroscopy is an omnipresent experimental tool in many fields of
fundamental research and applied science. The determination of the kinetic energies of the …

An investigation of the radiationless decay of core excited Xe atoms in the region of Xe L 3 M
4, 5 M 4, 5 Auger electron kinetic energies (using x-ray energies in the vicinity of the L 3 …

In this work we investigated the competition between the local Auger decay and core-level
interatomic Coulombic decay (ICD) processes in core ionized rare-gas dimers. We …

In x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), the injected hole interacts with the electronic
polarization cloud induced by the hole itself, ultimately resulting in a lower binding energy …

Site-specific fragmentation caused by Si: 1 s and 2 p core-level photoionizations in F 3 SiCH
2 CH 2 Si (CH 3) 3 vapor was studied by energy-selected-photoelectron photoion-photoion …

Structures of small mixed krypton-xenon clusters of different compositions with an average
size of 30–37 atoms are investigated. The Kr 3d 5/2 and Xe 4d 5/2 surface core level shifts …

The Xe 5s photoelectron spectrum and 5p4nl correlation satellites have been studied in
small Xe clusters of an average size of about 15 atoms. The satellite structures are …
