Abstract
This review article surveys recent experimental and theoretical advances in the gas-phase ion chemistry of the noble gases. Covered issues include the interaction of the noble gases with metal and non-metal cations, the conceivable existence of covalent noble-gas anions, the occurrence of ion–molecule reactions involving singly-charged xenon cations and the occurrence of bond-forming reactions involving doubly-charged cations. Research themes are also highlighted, which are expected to attract further interest in the nearfuture.
