Photoelectron spectra of Al5O<sub>m</sub><sup>-</sup> (m=3–5) and of the anion produced by the dissociative adsorption of a water molecule by Al5O<sub>4</sub><sup>-</sup> are interpreted with density-functional geometry optimizations and electron-propagator calculations of vertical electron detachment energies. For Al5O<sub>3</sub><sup>-</sup>, Al5O<sub>4</sub><sup>-</sup>, and Al5O5H<sub>2</sub><sup>-</sup>, the observed signals may be attributed to the most stable isomer of each anion. For Al5O<sub>5</sub><sup>-</sup>, the features in the photoelectron spectrum are due to three almost isoenergetic isomers. ©2007 American Institute of Physics
