We propose that the global minimum structure of the Au-10(2+) system has a highly symmetrical tetrahedral geometry and is clearly separated from the other isomers by a high relative energy gap. The large highest occupied molecular orbital-to-lowest unoccupied molecular orbital (HOMO-LUMO) gap as well as the superatom and spherical aromatic characters account for the high stability of this T-d Au-10(2+) geometry.
