Description
Helium nanodroplets are intriguing entities, these superfluid physical objects were made at the end of the 20th century and share common features with Bose-Einstein condensates.
With a temperature of only 0.38K, they are now playing a major role as a host for atoms, molecules and clusters for preparing cold samples and in the formation of atomic/molecular clusters. Their high thermal conductivity, vanishing viscosity and high ionization potential make them a fantastic solvent for the study of fundamental interactions on a large variety of species.
In this talk, I will present some recent results concerning the rotational dynamics of molecules either embedded in helium nanodroplets or sitting on its surface.
I will then show how we can track the successive attachment of helium atoms onto an alkali ion deposited on its surface, making it the first atomistic measurement of a solvation dynamics.
