Abstract: The kinetic properties of clusters are studied taking into account non-ideal contributions. The velocity distribution functions are distorted Maxwellians. From these distributions it is possible to derive kinetic “temperatures” associated with each cluster species which are different from the thermodynamic temperature T. Molecular dynamics simulations confirm these predictions and show that the kinetic temperatures are larger than T.
