Using Density Functional Theory, the neutral and positively charged dimer structures of C3H6N6O6 have been calculated. The adiabatic and vertical ionization energies have been bracketed between 8 and 10 eV. The dominant dissociation pathways have been identified. Possibilities for further clustering have been investigated. A sum of 33 neutrals and 27 cations have been found. These structures coexist within an energy range of 30 kJ/mol. Cations are encountered in the form of charge-dipole complexes and proton-transfer complexes while the neutrals are brought together by long range dispersion forces.30 cm.Ionization.The energy and effect of ionization on cluster formation and post ionization dynamics of energetic materials : a density functional study on (C3H6N6O6)2xiii, 70 leaves ;
