Abstract

Sodium clusters were produced in the stainless steel cell containing sodium vapors and helium, with the aid of the laser light resonant with the Na² particles. The clusters formation was investigated. Data on the cluster size and dynamics were obtained. The theoretical model of clusters evolution based on the thermodynamics of the vapor-liquid transition was developed. The scattering of light on sodium clusters was studied and the theoretical formulas were fitted to the experimental data.
