Time-resolved solvation of alkali ions in superfluid helium nanodroplets: Theoretical simulation of a pump-probe study

Ernesto García-Alfonso, Manuel Barranco, Martí Pi +1

The solvation process of an alkali ion (Na${}^{+}$, K${}^{+}$, Rb${}^{+}$, Cs${}^{+}$) inside a superfluid ${}^4$He${}_{2000}$ nanodroplet is investigated theoretically using liquid ${}^4$He time-depend…
