Extracting inter-nuclear distances in the oxygen molecule interacting with an XFEL-pulse: a fundamental system for understanding Coulomb explosion imaging

Zixu Wang, Georgios Petros Katsoulis, Giorgio Visentin +3

We investigate the interaction of O${}_2$ with an X-ray Free Electron laser (XFEL) pulse of short duration. We consider a photon energy of 570 eV, which allows for the formation of…
