✦ Synopsis


Electron attachment to C6,, and CT0 yields long-lived (i.e. mass spectrometrically observable) anions C, and C% within a remarkably broad energy region (up to 13-14 eV) as already established in a previous experiment. Inspection of the low energy region reveals, however, that electron capture is characterized by an activation barrier of 240 meV for C& close to the results of the previous FALP study and 200 meV for C 70. Flight time measurements of the anions indicate that the lifetimes of C& and C, decrease exponentially with increasing internal energy in the range 8 d E* =$12 eV. For example, at 10 eV the lifetime is 90 ps for C, and 300 ps for CT,. It is also established that the lifetime of both anions is controlled by electron emission (detachment).
