Abstract: Results of the optimization of the geometric structure of YSi$^-_n$ anion clusters ($n$ = 6–17) have been presented and their electron spectra have been calculated. Calculations have been performed by the density functional theory method. Actual geometric structures of clusters have been established by comparing the calculated and known experimental data.
