Abstract
This perspective article reviews experimental and theoretical works where rare gas clusters and helium nanodroplets are used as a nanoreactor to investigate chemical dynamics in a solvent environment. A historical perspective is presented first followed by specific considerations on the mobility of reactants within these reaction media. The dynamical response of pure clusters and nanodroplets to photoexcitation is shortly reviewed before examining the role of the cluster (or nanodroplet) degrees of freedom in the photodynamics of the guest atoms and molecules.

Abstract
Focus in the present paper is on the analysis of total and partial ionization cross sections, measured in absolute value as a function of the collision energy, representative of the probability of ionic product formation in selected electronic states in Ne*-H2 O, H2 S, and NH3 collisions. In order to characterize the imaginary part of the optical potential, related to electronic couplings, we generalize a methodology to obtain direct information on the opacity function of these reactions. Such a methodology has been recently exploited to test the real part of the optical potential (S. Falcinelli et al., Chem. Eur. J., 2016, 22, 764-771). Depending on the balance of noncovalent contributions, the real part controls the approach of neutral reactants, the removal of ionic products, and the structure of the transition state. Strength, range, and stereoselectivity of electronic couplings, triggering these and many other reactions, are directly obtained from the present investigation.

Abstract
We carried out accurate quantum wave packet as well as quasi-classical trajectory (QCT) calculations for H + CaCl (νi = 0, ji = 0) reaction occurring on an adiabatic ground state using the recent ab initio potential energy surface to obtain the quantum and QCT reaction probabilities for several partial waves (J = 0, 10, and 20) as well as state resolved QCT integral and differential cross sections. The complete list of vibrational energy levels supported by the intermediate HCaCl complex is also obtained using the Lanczos algorithm. The QCT reaction probabilities show excellent agreement with the quantum ones except for the failure in reproducing the highly oscillatory resonance structure. Despite the fact that the reaction is exothermic and the existence of a barrier that is energetically lower than the bottom of the reactant valley, the reaction probability for J = 0 shows threshold-like behavior and the reactivity all through the energies is very low (<0.1). The dynamical features at two different energy regions (<0.35 eV and >0.35 eV) are found to be different drastically from each other. The analyses of these results suggest that the reaction is governed by one of the two different types of reaction mechanism, one is the direct mechanism at the high energy region and the other is the indirect mechanism at the low energy region by which the reaction proceeds through the long-lived intermediate complex followed by a statistical dissociation into asymptotic channels.

Abstract
The equilibrium structure and three-dimensional potential energy surface of the Ca-HCl van der Waals complex in its ground electronic state have been determined from accurate ab initio calculations using the coupled-cluster method, CCSD(T), in conjunction with basis sets of quadruple- and quintuple-zeta quality. The core-electron correlation, high-order valence-electron correlation, and scalar relativistic effects were investigated. The Ca-HCl complex was confirmed to be linear at equilibrium, with the vibrationless dissociation energy (into Ca and HCl) D(e) of 287 cm(-1). The vibration-rotation energy levels of various Ca-HCl isotopomers were predicted using the variational method. The predicted spectroscopic constants can be useful in a further analysis of high-resolution vibration-rotation spectra of the Ca-HCl complex.

Abstract
Photodepletion and action spectra of the laser-induced Ba...FCD3 fragmentation have been measured over the 16 075-16 380 cm(-1) range. The observed band and peak structures allowed us to estimate the vibrational and rotational structures of the excited complex at the transition state configuration. The relative reaction probability P(R)(E) for the intracluster Ba...FCD3 + h nu --> BaF + CD3 reaction has been determined over the cited energy range. P(R)(E) shows a peak structure with an energy spacing of 8.9 cm(-1) which was attributed to an internal rotation of the CD3 group in the intermediate state. A comparison with previous Ba...FCH3 photofragmentation spectra reveals the dynamical role of the internal CX3 (X = H,D) motion which is manifested by the presence of rotational resonances in the laser-induced intracluster reaction.

Abstract
The Ca* + CH3F --> CaF + CH3 reaction was photoinduced in 1:1 Ca...CH3F complexes formed in a supersonic expansion. The transition state of the reaction was explored by monitoring the electronically excited product, CaF, while scanning the laser that turns on the reaction. Moreover, the electronic structure of the Ca...FCH3 system was studied using ab initio methods by associating a pseudopotential description of the [Ca2+] and [F7+] cores, a core polarization operator on calcium, an extensive Gaussian basis and a treatment of the electronic problem at the CCSD(T) (ground state) and RSPT2 (excited states) level. In this contribution we present experimental results for the free complex and a comparison with the results of a previous experiment where the Ca...CH3F complexes are deposited at the surface of large argon clusters. The ab initio calculations allowed an interpretation of the experimental data in terms of two reaction mechanisms, one involving a partial charge transfer state, the other involving the excitation of the C-F stretch in the CH3F moiety prior to charge transfer.

Abstract
The "cluster isolated chemical reactions" technique is used to examine the dynamics of the photoinduced reaction producing electronically excited CaF when 1:1 Ca-CH(3)F complexes are deposited at the surface of large argon clusters. This technique ensures quantitatively that 1:1 complexes are actually at the origin of the observed signals. The reaction is monitored by observing the CaF chemiluminescence while scanning the photoexcitation laser. The resulting action spectrum contains information about the absorption bands of the complex, filtered by the dynamics of the reaction. The observations suggest a profound alteration of the calcium electronic structure and a control of the reaction by the CF stretch in CH(3)F.

Abstract
Ca+HCl(upsilon,j) reactive collisions were studied for different rovibrational states of the HCl reactant using wave-packet calculations in reactant Jacobi coordinates. A recently proposed potential-energy surface was used with a barrier of approximately 0.4 eV followed by a deep well. The possibility of an insertion mechanism due to this last well has been analyzed and it was found that once the wave packet passes over the barrier most of it goes directly to CaCl+H products, which shows that the reaction dynamics is essentially direct. It was also found that there is no significant change in the reaction efficiency as a function of the initial HCl rovibrational state, because CaHCl at the barrier has an only little elongated HCl bond. Near the threshold for reaction with HCl(upsilon=0), however, the reaction shows significant steric effects for j > 0. In a complementary study, the infrared excitation from the Ca-HCl van der Waals well was simulated. The spectrum thus obtained shows several series of resonances which correspond to quasibound states correlating to excited HCl(upsilon) vibrations. The Ca-HCl binding energies of these quasibound states increase dramatically with upsilon, from 75 to 650 cm(-1), because the wave function spreads increasingly over larger HCl bond lengths. Thus it explores the region of the barrier saddle point and the deep insertion well. Although also the charge-transfer contribution increases with upsilon, the reaction probability for resonances of the upsilon=2 manifold, which are well above the reaction threshold, is still negligible. This explains the relatively long lifetimes of these upsilon=2 resonances. The reaction probability becomes significant at upsilon=3. Our simulations have shown that an experimental study of this type will allow a gradual spectroscopic probing of the barrier for the reaction.

Abstract
The potential-energy surface of the ground electronic state of CaHCl has been obtained from 6400 ab initio points calculated at the multireference configuration-interaction level and represented by a global analytical fit. The Ca+HCl-->CaCl+H reaction is endothermic by 5100 cm(-1) with a barrier of 4470 cm(-1) at bent geometry, taking the zero energy in the Ca+HCl asymptote. On both sides of this barrier are potential wells at linear geometries, a shallow one due to van der Waals interactions in the entrance channel, and a deep one attributed to the H(-)Ca(++)Cl(-) ionic configuration. The accuracy of the van der Waals well depth, approximately 200 cm(-1), was checked by means of additional calculations at the coupled-cluster singles and doubles with perturbative triples level and it was concluded that previous empirical estimates are unrealistic. Also, the electric dipole function was calculated, analytically fitted in the regions of the two wells, and used to analyze the charge shifts along the reaction path. In the insertion well, 16,800 cm(-1) deep, the electric dipole function confirmed the ionic structure of the HCaCl complex and served to estimate effective atomic charges. Finally, bound rovibrational levels were computed both in the van der Waals well and in the insertion well, and the infrared-absorption spectrum of the insertion complex was simulated in order to facilitate its detection.

Abstract
▪ Abstract This article reviews recent progress in our understanding of gas-phase neutral reaction dynamics as made possible by improvements in the crossed molecular beam scattering technique for measuring reactive differential cross sections. A selection of crossed-beam studies on systems that play a fundamental role in our basic understanding of reaction phenomena are discussed to illustrate the capabilities of the experimental method. The examples include benchmark atom-diatom abstraction and insertion reactions, and four-atom radical reactions for which state-to-state, state-resolved, or state-averaged differential cross sections have recently been measured. The results are discussed in the light of the latest related theoretical developments regarding the treatment of potential energy surfaces and the dynamics of the systems. Recent results on crossed-beam studies of chemically relevant reactions of carbon, nitrogen, and oxygen atoms are also reviewed, and the latest developments in the technique are noted.
