High-resolution mass spectra of helium droplets doped with C$_{60}$ and formic acid (FA) are ionized by electrons. Positive ion mass spectra reveal cluster ions [(C$_{60}$)$_p$FA$_n$]$^+$ together with their hydrogenated and dehydrogenated…
We demonstrate rather interesting manifestations of co-existence of resonance features in characteristics of the photoionization of 3d-electrons in Xe, Cs and Ba endohedral atoms. It is shown that for all of the considered atoms the…
For field-effect-doped fullerenes it was reported that the superconducting transition temperature Tc is markedly larger for C60.2CHX_3 (X=Cl, Br) crystals, than for pure C60. Initially this was explained by the expansion of the volume per…
We suggest an explanation of the recently observed discrepancy between the experimental and theoretical results on ionization of atoms, encapsulated into the fullerenes by photons with the energies of about 80-190eV. On the ground of…
It is demonstrated that the fullerene shell affects dramatically the radiative and Auger vacancy decay of an endohedral atom A@C60. The collectivized electrons of the C60 shell add new possibilities for radiative and non-radiative decays…
