Investigation of Mixed 4Hem3Hen Clusters by Matter Wave Diffraction — •Oleg Kornilov1, Anton Kalinin1, Wieland Schöllkopf1,2, and J.

Mixed isotope helium clusters are very weakly bound objects, whose properties depend on the quantum statistics and masses of the constituents. These small clusters exhibit a number of magic stabilities resulting from spin pairing effects in the 3He constituents. Molecular beams of 4Hem3Hen clusters have been analyzed using the matter-wave diffraction technique. Clusters with (m,n) = (2,1), (2,2), (3,1), (3,2), (4,1), (4,2), (4,3), (5,1), (5,2), (6,1) could be identified experimentally for the first time and provide a confirmation for their predicted stabilities [1,2]. The clusters are also being investigated using deflection in a strong inhomogeneous magnetic field.
