DESCRIPTION:Prof. Ruth Signorell\, ETH Zürich\, Switzerland\nIt is well k
 nown that light interacts differently with small particles compared with b
 ulk materials or gas phase molecules\, producing spectral signatures that 
 strongly depend on particle properties\, such as size\, shape\, or archite
 cture. Even molecular aggregates that are held together by weak intermolec
 ular interactions can exhibit such characteristic spectral signatures. Thi
 s talk provides an overview of our research in this field. I will present 
 our latest results on the behavior of slow electrons in molecular aggregat
 es and nanoscale aerosol particles obtained from angle-resolved photoelect
 ron spectroscopy. In the second part\, I will introduce a new experimental
  setup that combines Laval expansions with mass spectrometric detection\, 
 which is intended for the study of fundamental aspects of gas phase nuclea
 tion. Finally\, I will briefly discuss our latest attempts to perform spec
 troscopic studies on single submicron-sized aerosol droplets in optical tr
 aps.
