title: Isomer abundance of small carbon clusters formed in buffer He gas.
abstract: We calculated the isomer spectrum of carbon clusters of 3-36 atoms, and performed molecular dynamics simulations of the cluster growth in buffer helium gas, showing that the isomers with potentials higher than those of the most stable clusters form with considerable probabilities under common experimental conditions.
