We present a new experiment which is able to monitor mass-selected cluster depositions in real time using specular reflected thermal helium scattering. Ag: with an incident energy of 2.86 and of 13.6 eV/atom is deposited on Pd( 100) at different surface temperatures. The measurement technique relies on the large atomic cross sections J$ of adsorbates for diffuse helium scattering. An analysis of 2 shows that heptamers become fragmented upon impact for both energies and that some of the cluster atoms are implanted into the surface layer.
