Multiatomic clusters emerging from a metal surface under ion bombardment

Abstract

[Ag n ]− ions emerging from a silver target under bombardment with energetic krypton ions have been measured forn ranging up to 60. The relative intensities of ions with odd numbers are strikingly favoured. The numbersn=8 and 20 mark minima in the abundance of ions with even numbers. The observations are briefly discussed.
