  We introduce a method of molecular dynamics in shape space aimed at metal
clusters. The ionic degrees of freedom are described via a dynamically
deformable jellium with inertia parameters derived from an incompressible,
irrotational flow. The shell correction method is used to calculate the
electronic potential energy surface underlying the dynamics. Our finite
temperature simulations of Ag_14 and its ions, following the negative to
neutral to positive scheme, demonstrate the potential of pump and probe
ultrashort laser pulses as a spectroscopy of cluster shape vibrations.
