The emission of thermal electromagnetic radiation from hot molecules and clusters has long been assumed to be a simple matter of vibrational transitions. However, it is becoming increasingly clear that also electrons can be excited thermally and emit photons. The rates for these emissions can reach microsecond timescales for metal clusters, more than three orders of magnitude shorter than vibrational IR radiation. Besides often occurring on very short time scales, the rates also are very molecule-specific ; Every electron counts. In the talk I will present the special features that allow experimental determination of the phenomenon, and give a tour of some results obtained for molecules and clusters.
