35. 1 = 1,...,6, is similar. Also, it is important to realize that in the present case a constant must be added to all data points in order to remove points with zero partial yield and make a log-fit possible. In the fitting procedure it turned out that the value of this constant influences the fit. For example, fits to all partial yield points for final silver clusters using additive constants of 1 and 10, respectively, produces δ values that differ by about 30%. Due to this complication, the results presented in the main text are those of a direct fitting without using logarithms.
