Abstract
The results of ab initio studies of the atomic and charge structure of small clusters and cluster ions formed by 13 and 19 argon atoms are reported. It was found that the icosahedral atomic structure is energetically the most favorable for such clusters. The calculations demonstrate that when a single electron is removed from a cluster, the excess positive charge is distributed primarily over the surface of the formed cluster ion.
