Popis: Dissociation energies for monomer evaporation from small (n ≤ 4) neutral and ionized molecular clusters are experimentally determined from the measured ionization potentials and the appearance potentials of the respective metastable decay channels of each cluster ion. The results strongly support a sandwich structure for benzene dimer and trimer ions. For larger benzene cluster ions up to n = 23 the dissociation energies are deduced from the measured intensities of their metastable decay applying the evaporative ensemble model combined with a restricted RRKM formalism. The dissociation energies are discussed as a function of cluster size and interpreted in terms of the interaction mechanism and the structure of the complex.
