abstract = {The spectroscopy of free radicals and radical containing
entrance-channel complexes embedded in superfluid helium
nano-droplets is reviewed. The collection of dopants inside
individual droplets in the beam represents a micro-canonical
ensemble, and as such each droplet may be considered an
isolated cryo-reactor. The unique properties of the
droplets, namely their low temperature (0.4 K) and fast
cooling rates (∼1016 K s−1) provides novel opportunities
for the formation and high-resolution studies of molecular
complexes containing one or more free radicals. The
production methods of radicals are discussed in light of
their applicability for embedding the radicals in helium
droplets. The spectroscopic studies performed to date on
molecular radicals and on entrance / exit-channel complexes
of radicals with stable molecules are detailed. The observed
complexes provide new information on the potential energy
surfaces of several fundamental chemical reactions and on
the intermolecular interactions present in open-shell
systems. Prospects of further experiments of radicals
embedded in helium droplets are discussed, especially the
possibilities to prepare and study high-energy structures
and their controlled manipulation, as well as the
possibility of fundamental physics experiments.},
