Abstract
English
In this work sodium doped water clusters are studied by means of photoionization reflectron time-of-flight mass spectrometry. Addition of an laser pulse of infrared radiation to the photoionization laser pulse sequence enables the measurement of vibrational spectra of large water clusters.
