Abstrakt: Abundances of ArN+ and XeN+ clusters produced in a supersonic expansion source are inverted to find relative dissociation energies. The values around the shell and subshell closings at N=55, 71, and 147 differ from theoretical values derived from ground-state energies of Lennard-Jones clusters. A significant part of the difference can be accounted for by the conformational entropies of surface atoms and vacancies. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
