Looking at articles, I found that some German scientists made a cation of phosphorus, P9+, and althought unable to read the article, the image given
makes me think it involved a nitrosation of white phosphorus and subsequent reaction with another molecule of white phosphorus. Can anyone with access
elaborate here on the process or provide a link to a free copy of the article?
Link to original article I couldn't access:

This type of thing is not extremely unusual. I have not read the article but I would be surprised if super lewis acids (fluoride ion abductors) were
not involved.
