The melting like transition is described in terms of atom resolved root-mean-square bond length fluctuations, specific heats, coordination numbers and short-time averaged temperatures. Some of these diagnostic tools are also used for the overall behaviour of the clusters. The results are compared with the relevant literature.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/closedAccessArticle10.1088/0965-0393/13/8/0152-s2.0-28944433227
