Abstract

Diffusion Monte Carlo (DMC), after Variational Monte Carlo (VMC), calculations are carried out to assess the possible binding and the spatial collocation of the negatively charged LiH− molecule as a single dopant in small clusters of 4He. The number of cluster adatoms is extended to N=15 and the bosonic, quantum solvent is found to stabilize as a nearly independent cluster with the dopant molecule sitting on its surface. The spatial features displayed by such weakly bound series of complexes are discussed and analyzed.
