Helium nanodroplets have emerged as a new and exciting medium for studying the structure
and dynamics of both this quantum solvent and impurities that can be doped into (onto) and …

▪ Abstract Laser ablation of in situ metals has recently made it possible to immerse a large
number of different metal atoms and ions and small clusters of metal atoms in liquid helium …

In the 1990s, nanoparticles and quantum dots began to be used in optical, electronic, and
biological applications. Now they are being studied for use in solid-state quantum …

This article provides a review of recent work in the field of helium nanodroplet spectroscopy
with an emphasis on the dynamical aspects of the interactions between molecules in helium …

We review the physics of helium nanodroplets with emphasis on theoretical aspects that
have been the subject of recent research, like 3 He and mixed 3 He− 4 He droplets, vortices …

Recent experiments on the electronic spectroscopy of atoms, clusters, and organic
molecules embedded in helium nanodroplets are reviewed. Electronic transitions imply a …

During the last decade, density function theory (DFT) in its static and dynamic time
dependent forms, has emerged as a powerful tool to describe the structure and dynamics of …

We review the solvation of atomic, molecular or cluster ions in HNDs. After briefly discussing
the properties of snowballs in bulk helium we consider experimental conditions for the …

Interaction energies of dimers containing alkaline earth (Be, Mg, and Ca) metals have been
investigated using symmetry-adapted perturbation theory (SAPT) and supermolecular (SM) …

Helium is the only substance that has been observed on macroscopic scale to form the
fourth state of matter, the superfluid state. However, until recently superfluid helium had not …
