Molecular structure retrieval directly from laboratory-frame photoelectron spectra in laser-induced electron diffraction
A. Sanchez, K. Amini, S. -J. Wang +12
Ubiquitous to most molecular scattering methods is the challenge to retrieve bond distance and angle from the scattering signals since this requires convergence of pattern matching…
Direct experimental observation of periodic intensity modulation along straight hollow core optical waveguides
T. Pfeifer, M. C. Downer
We report the direct observation of periodic intensity modulation of a laser pulse propagating in a hollow core waveguide. A series of equally spaced plasma sparks along the gas-fi…
All-Optical Single-Shot Temporal Characterization of SASE FEL Pulses Using Double-Blind Holography
A. Azzolin, O. Cannelli, K. -F. Wong +31
X-ray Free-electron lasers (XFELs) deliver ultrashort and ultrabright radiation in a photon-energy range spanning from extreme ultraviolet to hard X-rays. Supporting pulse duration…
Time-Resolved Measurement of Interatomic Coulombic Decay in Ne_2
K. Schnorr, A. Senftleben, M. Kurka +24
The lifetime of interatomic Coulombic decay (ICD) [L. S. Cederbaum et al., Phys. Rev. Lett. 79, 4778 (1997)] in Ne_2 is determined via an extreme ultraviolet pump-probe experiment…
Highly efficient double ionization of mixed alkali dimers by intermolecular Coulombic decay
A. C. LaForge, M. Shcherbinin, F. Stienkemeier +4
As opposed to purely molecular systems where electron dynamics proceed only through intramolecular processes, weakly bound complexes such as He droplets offer an environment where…
Dopant induced ignition of helium nanodroplets in intense few-cycle laser pulses
S. R. Krishnan, L. Fechner, M. Kremer +13
We demonstrate ultrafast resonant energy absorption of rare-gas doped He nanodroplets from intense few-cycle (~10 fs) laser pulses. We find that less than 10 dopant atoms "ignite"…
