Abstract
Cluster ion distributions from the plasma desorption of the Group IIA metal nitrates were examined. Two predominant positive cluster species are observed, (MO)(n)H-+ and (MO)(n)M(+) (M denotes metal atom). Regu lar pronounced features are observed in the mass spectra, including en hanced abundances at certain ''magic numbers'' of n.
