We report ground state energies and structural properties for small helium clusters (4He) containing an H- impurity computed by means of variational and diffusion Monte Carlo methods. Except for 4He_2H- that has a noticeable contribution from collinear geometries where the H- impurity lies between the two 4He atoms, our results show that our 4He_NH- clusters have a compact 4He_N subsystem that binds the H- impurity on its surface. The results for $Ngeq 3$ can be interpreted invoking the different features of the minima of the He-He and He-H- interaction potentials.

Almost ten years ago, energetic neutral hydrogen atoms were detected after a strong-field double ionization of H$_2$. This process, called frustrated tunneling ionization, occurs when an ionized electron is recaptured after being driven back to its p arent ion by the electric field of a femtosecond laser. In the present study we demonstrate that a related process naturally occurs in clusters without the need of an external field: we observe a charge hopping that occurs during a Coulomb explosion of a small helium cluster, which leads to an energetic neutral helium atom. This claim is supported by theoretical evidence. As an analog to frustrated tunneling ionization, we term this process frustrated Coulomb explosion.
We predict the strong enhancement in the photoabsorption of small Mg clusters in the region of 4-5 eV due to the resonant excitation of the plasmon oscillations of cluster electrons. The photoabsorption spectra for neutral Mg clusters consisting of u p to N=11 atoms have been calculated using ab initio framework based on the time dependent density functional theory (TDDFT). The nature of predicted resonances has been elucidated by comparison of the results of the ab initio calculations with the results of the classical Mie theory. The splitting of the plasmon resonances caused by the cluster deformation is analysed. The reliability of the used calculation scheme has been proved by performing the test calculation for a number of sodium clusters and the comparison of the results obtained with the results of other methods and experiment.
The rotational dynamics of CO single molecules solvated in small He clusters (CO@He_N) has been studied using Reptation Quantum Monte Carlo for cluster sizes up to N=30. Our results are in good agreement with the roto-vibrational features of the infr ared spectrum recently determined for this system, and provide a deep insight into the relation between the structure of the cluster and its dynamics. Simulations for large N also provide a prediction of the effective moment of inertia of CO in the He nano-droplet regime, which has not been measured so far.

We have investigated the stability limits of small spin-polarized clusters consisting of up to ten spin-polarized tritium T$downarrow$ atoms and the mixtures of T$downarrow$ with spin-polarized deuterium D$downarrow$ and hydrogen H$downarrow$ atoms. All of our calculations have been performed using the variational and diffusion Monte Carlo methods. For clusters with D$downarrow$ atoms, the released node procedure is used in cases where the wave function has nodes. In addition to the energy, we have also calculated the structure of small clusters using unbiased estimators. Results obtained for pure T$downarrow$ clusters are in good accordance with previous calculations, confirming that the trimer is the smallest spin-polarized tritium cluster. Our results show that mixed T$downarrow$-H$downarrow$ clusters having up to ten atoms are unstable and that it takes at least three tritium atoms to bind one, two or three D$downarrow$ atoms. Among all the considered clusters, we have found no other Borromean states except the ground state of the T$downarrow$ trimer.
Energy absorption of xenon clusters embedded in helium nanodroplets from strong femtosecond laser pulses is studied theoretically. Compared to pure clusters we find earlier and more efficient energy absorption in agreement with experiments. This effe ct is due to resonant absorption of the helium nanoplasma whose formation is catalyzed by the xenon core. For very short double pulses with variable delay both plasma resonances, due to the helium shell and the xenon core, are identified and the experimental conditions are given which should allow for a simultaneous observation of both of them.
