We have demonstrated that the polarization of the fullerene shell considerably alters the polarization potential of an atom, stuffed inside a fullerene. This essentially affects the electron elastic scattering phases as well as corresponding cross-sections. We illustrate the general trend by concrete examples of electron scattering by endohedrals of Neon and Argon. To obtain the presented results, we have suggested a simplified approach that permits to incorporate the effect of fullerenes polarizability into the Neon and Argon endohedrals polarization potential. As a result, we obtained numeric results that show strong variations in shape and magnitudes of scattering phases and cross-sections due to effect of fullerene polarization upon the endohedral polarization potential.

We analyze using Poisson equation the spatial distributions of the positive charge of carbon atomic nuclei shell and negative charge of electron clouds forming the electrostatic potential of the C60 fullerene shell as a whole. We consider also the ca
se when an extra positive charge appears inside C60 in course of e.g. photoionization of an endohedral A@C. We demonstrate that frequently used radial square-well potential U(r) simulating the C60 shell leads to nonphysical charge densities of the shell in both cases - without and with an extra positive charge inside. We conclude that the square well U(r) modified by adding a Coulomb-potential-like term does not describe the interior polarization of the shell by the electric charge located in the center of the C60 shell. We suggest another model potential, namely that of hyperbolic cosine shape with properly adjusted parameters that is able to describe the monopole polarization of C60 shell. As a concrete illustration, we have calculated the photoionization cross-sections of H@C60 taking into account the monopole polarization of the shell in the frame of suggested model. We demonstrate that proper account of this polarization does not change the photoionization cross-section.
We provide answers to long-lasting questions in the puzzling behavior of fullerene-fullerene fusion: Why are the fusion barriers so exceptionally high and the fusion cross sections so extremely small? An ab initio nonadiabatic quantum molecular dynam
ics (NA-QMD) analysis of C$_{60}$+C$_{60}$ collisions reveals that the dominant excitation of an exceptionally giant oblate-prolate H$_g(1)$ mode plays the key role in answering both questions. From these microscopic calculations, a macroscopic collision model is derived, which reproduces the NA-QMD results. Moreover, it predicts analytically fusion barriers for different fullerene-fullerene combinations in excellent agreement with experiments.
This is an investigation on the dynamical screening of an atom confined within a fullerene of finite width. The two surfaces of the fullerene lead to the presence of two surface plasmon eigenmodes. It is shown that, in the vicinity of these two eigen
frequencies, there is a large enhancement of the confined atoms photoabsorption rate.
In this Letter, we investigate the variation of endohedral A@CN potential due to addition at the center of it a positive charge, for example, in the process of atom A photoionization. Using a reasonable model to describe the fullerenes shell, we mana
ged to calculate the variation that is a consequence of the monopole polarization of CN shell. We analyze model potentials with flat and non-flat bottoms and demonstrate that the phenomenological potentials that properly simulates the C60 shell potential should belong to a family of potentials with a non-flat bottom. As concrete example, we use the Lorentz-bubble model potential. By varying the thickness of this potential, we describe the various degrees of the monopole polarization of the C60 shell by positive electric charge in the center of the shell. We calculated the photoionization cross-sections of He, Ar and Xe atoms located at the center of C60 shell with and without taking into account accompanying this process monopole polarization of the fullerenes shell. Unexpectedly, we found that the monopole polarization do not affect the photoionization cross sections of these endohedral atoms.
Together with the second generation REBO reactive potential, replica-exchange molecular dynamics simulations coupled with systematic quenching were used to generate a broad set of isomers for neutral C$_n$ clusters with $n=24$, 42, and 60. All the mi
nima were sorted in energy and analyzed using order parameters to monitor the evolution of their structural and chemical properties. The structural diversity measured by the fluctuations in these various indicators is found to increase significantly with energy, the number of carbon rings, especially 6-membered, exhibiting a monotonic decrease in favor of low-coordinated chains and branched structures. A systematic statistical analysis between the various parameters indicates that energetic stability is mainly driven by the amount of sp$^2$ hybridization, more than any geometrical parameter. The astrophysical relevance of these results is discussed in the light of the recent detection of C$_{60}$ and C$_{60}^+$ fullerenes in the interstellar medium.
