We present our latest studies on reactive scattering in crossed ionic and molecular beams. With an improved 3D-VMI setup we have measured vibrational state-to-state differential cross-sections of the reaction Ar+ + N2 → Ar + N2+ with significantly increased resolution. We find qualitative agreement with the theoretical predictions of Candori et al.[1] concerning the excitation of higher v and their scattering into larger angles, thus approaching a consistent description of this long-puzzling reaction[2]. We also report recent developments to study the influence of microsolvation on ion-molecule reactions. The combination of crossed-beam imaging with a multipole radio frequency ion trap allows us to prepare the ionic water clusters under well-defined initial conditions. First data have been obtained for the reaction of OH− · (H2O)n with CH3I. Finally we will give an outlook on our plans to scatter IR-laser excited CH3I to study the influence of vibrational spectator modes.
