甲烷团簇纯库仑爆炸的离子平均动能

利用一简单的经典静电模型研究了甲烷团簇纯库仑爆炸情况下产生的离子平均动能。研究表明，甲烷团簇爆炸后离子获得的平均动能和离子的初始平均静电势能的比值，与团簇的尺寸大小无关。这意味着在甲烷团簇纯库仑爆炸近似下，不必使用分子动力学模拟，离子获得的动能可以通过这一比值以及离子的初始静电势能进行估算。给出了不同碳离子价态下的离子平均动能和其初始平均静电势能的比值。

We use an electrostatic model to study the average kinetic energy of ions ejected from the pure Coulomb explosions of methane clusters (CA(4))(n) (light atom A=H and D). It is found that the ratio of the average kinetic energy of the ions to their initial average electrostatic potential energy is irrelevant to the cluster size. This finding implies that as long as the ratio is given, the average kinetic energies of the ions can be simply estimated from their initial average electrostatic potential energies, rather than from the time-consuming simulations. The ratios for the different charge states of carbon ions are presented.
