Electrically charged species having masses larger than 327 atomic mass units have been detected in the stratosphere by a newly designed balloon-borne mass spectrometer. The particles appear to be arranged in a layer peaking around 30 km altitude where their abundance is at least comparable to that of 'normal' ions. The peak has a very steep top and a less pronounced bottom. Arguments are put forward favoring an interpretation of the observed particles as charged 'multi-ion complexes'. A possible role of the newly detected particles in the physics and chemistry of stratospheric aerosols and trace gases is discussed.
