“…Very recently, those authors have extended their early work by considering the multiple scattering on target atoms and the charge-state evolution of the cluster constituent ions [8]. On the other hand, calculations of the dynamically screened self-energy of fast C 60 clusters in solids showed that, owing to the wake pattern in the target dielectric response, the cluster structure could be stabilized against Coulomb explosion when the cluster size exceeds the characteristic length λ p = v/ω p , where v is the cluster speed and ω p is the plasma frequency of the electron gas in the target [9,10]. In a recent work, motivated by this conclusion, MD simulations were used to reveal strong asymmetries in Coulomb explosion patterns of fast C 60 clusters after long penetration times, which were attributed to the wake effects [11,12], showing that the use of Yukawa-type interaction potentials may have limited applicability in studies of Coulomb explosions in solids.…”
