Observation of enhanced chiral asymmetries in the inner-shell photoionization of uniaxially oriented methyloxirane enantiomers

Maurice Tia, Martin Pitzer, Gregor Kastirke +38

Most large molecules are chiral in their structure: they exist as two enantiomers, which are mirror images of each other. Whereas the rovibronic sublevels of two enantiomers are al…

Two-particle interference of electron pairs on a molecular level

M. Waitz, D. Metz, J. Lower +19

We investigate the photo-doubleionization of molecules with 400 eV photons. We find that the emitted electrons do not show any sign of two-center interference fringes in thei…
