Abstract: The electronic shell structure in small metallic nanoclusters leads to high level degeneracy, which is strongly beneficial for the appearance of pair correlation. This results in a high value of T c as well as in the appearance of a superconducting gap which causes a strong modification of the energy spectrum. The electronic energy spectrum becomes strongly temperature dependent. Consequently, specific experiments to demonstrate the presence of pair correlation can be proposed.
