Polarization of chirality
David Ayuso, Andres Ordonez, Piero Decleva +2
It has been long recognized that the spatial polarization of the electronic clouds in molecules, and the spatial arrangements of atoms into chiral molecular structures, play crucia…
Non-Dichroic Enantio-Sensitive Chiroptical Spectroscopy
Letizia Fede, Debobrata Rajak, Chris Sparling +8
Chiroptical effects using circularly polarized light produce signals that change sign when switching either molecular handedness (enantiosensitivity) or the light helicity (circula…
Unraveling the relaxation dynamics of Uracil: insights from time-resolved X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy
Davide FaccialÃ, Matteo Bonanomi, Bruno Nunes Cabral Tenorio +26
We report a study of the electronic and nuclear relaxation dynamics of the photoexcited RNA base uracil in the gas phase, using time-resolved core level photoelectron spectroscopy…
Water Molecules in Ultrashort Intense Laser Fields
Simon Petretti, Alejandro Saenz, Alberto Castro +1
Ionization and excitation of water molecules in intense laser pulses is studied theoretically by solving the three-dimensional time-dependent electronic Schrödinger equation withi…
Geometric fields and new enantio-sensitive observables in photoionization of chiral molecules
Andres F. Ordonez, David Ayuso, Piero Decleva +1
Chiral molecules are instrumental for molecular recognition in living organisms. Distinguishing between two opposite enantiomers, the mirror twins of the same chiral molecule, is b…
Alignment-Dependent Ionization of N, O, and CO in Intense Laser Fields
Simon Petretti, Yulian V. Vanne, Alejandro Saenz +2
The ionization probability of N, O, and CO in intense laser fields is studied theoretically as a function of the alignment angle by solving the time-dependent Schrödin…
