✦ Synopsis

An interesting correlation is found between the kinetic stabilities of the fullerenes CJ4 to CTo, as determined by simple Hiickel theory HOMO-LUMO energy separations, and the intensities of photoionisation signals from carbon clusters produced by laser vaporisation ofgraphite. This correlation provides further circumstantial evidence that the observed Cjq to CT0 clusters are indeed fullerenes, closed carbon cages containing only five-and six-membered rings.
