Clusters of sulfur are grown by passing superfluid helium nanodroplets through a pickup cell filled with sulfur vapor. In some experiments the droplets are codoped with C 60 . The doped droplets are collided with energetic electrons and the abundance distributions of positively and negatively charged cluster ions are recorded. We report, specifically, distributions of S m + , S m - , and C 60 S m - containing up to 41 sulfur atoms. We also observe complexes of sulfur cluster anions with helium; distributions are presented for He n S m - with n ≤ 31 and m ≤ 3. The similarity between anionic and cationic C 60 S m ± spectra is in striking contrast to the large differences between spectra of S m + and S m - .
