Ab initio calculations were performed for the H<sub>3</sub><sup> + </sup>(H2)n clusters (n = 8–12), including complete optimization of several isomers of the n = 10 cluster. Binding energies, enthalpies, and ionization potentials are calculated. Well defined patterns of chromism are predicted for the H2 collective vibrations and for the H<sub>3</sub><sup>+</sup> breathing vibrations. The calculations for the n>10 clusters allow us to understand their shell structure in terms of concentric spheres of H2 molecules. The first and second shells have occupation numbers equal to 3 and 6, respectively, while for the third shell, this number is within the range 12–15. ©2001 American Institute of Physics.
