Abstract
Charge-transfer-to-solvent excited iodide–polar solvent molecule clusters, [I− (Solv)n]*, have attracted substantial interest over the past 20 years as they can undergo intriguing relaxation processes leading ultimately to the formation of gas-phase molecular analogues of the solvated electron. In this review article, we present a comprehensive overview of the development and application of state-of-the-art first-principles molecular dynamics simulation approaches to understand and interpret the results of femtosecond photoelectron spectroscopy experiments on [I− (Solv)n]* relaxation, which point to a high degree of solvent specificity in the electron solvation dynamics. The intricate molecular details of the [I− (Solv)n]* relaxation process are presented, and by contrasting the relaxation mechanisms of clusters with several different solvents (water, methanol and acetonitrile), the molecular basis of the solvent specificity of electron solvation in [I− (Solv)n]* is uncovered, leading to a more refined view of the manifestation of electron solvation in small gas-phase clusters.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
