✦ Synopsis

The theoretical prediction by van de Waal of stacking faults in rare gas clusters has been verified experimentally. It was established that a defect fcc structure has been formed in clusters of mean sizes /V/> 1500 atoms/cluster. The stacking fault density is a linear function of N-1/3. The number of 'defect' planes does not depend on the cluster size and is four.

A linear correlation plot is presented for the first ionization energy of the rare-gas n-mers, which extrapolates to a similar correlation for the photoemission threshold of the solid rare gases. Also a simple correlation is described for the heteronuclear rare-gas dimers, the correlation parameter

Tunneling transmission coefficients through rotationa barriers are investigated as a function of argon cluster ion size using the WKB approximation. The results indicate that tunneling coefficients corresponding to transmissions of a few percent, extend over time windows of ten orders of magnitude.
