    We have investigated solvent effects on acetylene photodissociation in clusters of different sizes and compositions generated in molecular beams: pure acetylene clusters (C2H2) n , <inline-formula id="ILM0001"> <inline-graphic xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink" xlink:href="tmph_a_706389_o_ilm0001.gif"/> </inline-formula>10-200, and mixed (C2H2) m  · Rg n (Rg = Ar, Xe) species where the single acetylene molecule or small cluster can be either adsorbed on the surface or embedded inside the rare gas cluster.
