Intensity anomalies (magic numbers) have been observed in the mass spectra of sodium clusters containing up to 22000 atoms. For small clusters (Na., n 6 1500) the anomalies appear to be due to the tilling of electronic shells. The mass spectra of larger clusters are well explained by the completion
The electron localization function (ELF) was calculated for the atoms Li to Sr. The ELF maxima reveal the atomic shell structure for all these atoms. The shells are separated from each other by ELF minima. The integration of the electron density in a shell gives electron numbers. For the valence she
