Abstract
Most of the first-row transition-metal oxides, M(A)O(B) (M = Sc, Ti, V, Cr, Mn, Fe, Co, Ni, Cu, Zn) were examined by static secondary ion mass spectrometry (s-SIMS) and laser ablation/ionization Fourier transform ion cyclotron resonance mass spectrometry (LA-FTICRMS). Positive and negative ions show strong correlation between the studied oxide and the detected cluster ions. Specific M(x)O(y) (+/-) species were systematically observed with both MS techniques for each investigated M(A)O(B) transition-metal oxide. Moreover, the ion composition and ion distribution are greatly dependent on the ionization technique. Laser ablation (LA)/ionization leads to larger cluster ions (ionic species with nearly hundred atoms were in particular detected for Sc2O3 and Y2O3 oxides), whereas hydrogenated, dihydrogenated, and sometimes trihydrogenated species were observed in s-SIMS. However, the ion distribution for a given M(x)O(y) (+/-) ion series (i.e. ions including the same number of metal atoms M) generally presented important similarities in both techniques.Finally, it was demonstrated that the chemical state of metal atoms in the observed ionic species is closely dependent on the metal electronic valence shell. High valence states (+III, +IV, +V, and +VI) are favored for metals with a less-than-half full valence shell configuration, whereas for other first-row transition metals (manganese, iron, cobalt, nickel, copper and zinc) lower metal valence states (0, +I or, +II) are involved.

Abstract
Relative concentrations of nine isomers of Ca at C82 derived from the C82 isolated-pentagon-rule satisfying cages are computed in a wide temperature interval. The computations are based on the Gibbs energy constructed from partition functions supplied with molecular parameters from density functional theory calculations. Five structures show significant populations at higher temperatures: C2v > Cs > C2 > C3v > Cs. The computed relative stabilities agree well with available observations.
