ResumoRecently it has been shown that the mass spectra of sodium clusters show evidence for magic numbers up to 22000 atoms. In the present investigation we have measured the ionization potential of large sodium clusters. The results indicate that magic numbers observed earlier are caused by an increase in the ionization energy each time a geometric shell of atoms is completed.
