In a multicollision experiment in which the individual collision steps are separated from each other both spatially and temporally, two helium atoms can be inserted into C 60 ˙+ . The experiment allows the production of [ 4 He 2 @C 60 ] ˙+ and [ 3 He 4 He@C 60 ] ˙+ and therefore opens the way to the formation of mixed endohedral complexes of the general structure AB@C x .
