Abstract

Negatively charged ions, or anions, play an important role in various scientific fields, including astrophysics, atmospheric chemistry and nuclear physics. Their properties, which are influenced by strong electron correlation and short-range polarisation potentials, present unique challenges for experimental and theoretical studies alike. This mini colloquium will highlight recent advancements in experimental results and techniques for studying anions. Topics covered will include electron affinities, detachment processes, laser-ion interactions, ion-ion collisions and applications in areas such as accelerator mass spectrometry, fusion energy and space exploration.
