Group additivity-Pourbaix diagrams advocate thermodynamically stable nanoscale clusters in aqueous environments

Aqueous clusters are important in a variety of biological and materials systems. Here Willset al. develop a theoretical approach based on a group additivity relationship which allows the evaluation of a wide range of clusters without the need of cumbersome ab initiocalculations.
