X-ray Driven Trihydrogen Formation on Silica Nanosurfaces
Samuel Sahel-Schackis, Adam Summers, Ritika Dagar +29
The trihydrogen cation () initiates the ion-molecule reactions that build molecular complexity in interstellar space. Whether its canonical formation reaction, $\ma…
Photoinduced enhancement of chemical shift sensitivity to local vibrations
Ana MartÃnez Gutiérrez, Oliver Alexander, Pablo Estévez Alonso +26
The advent of novel free-electron laser sources enabling time-resolved x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (tr-XPS) provides a unique opportunity to monitor local chemical environment…
Unraveling real-time chemical shifts in the ultrafast regime
Daniel E. Rivas, Lorenzo Paoloni, Rebecca Boll +21
Traditional x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) relies upon a direct mapping between the photoelectron binding energies and the local chemical environment, which is well-charact…
X-ray Coulomb explosion imaging reveals role of molecular structure in internal conversion
Till Jahnke, Sebastian Mai, Surjendu Bhattacharyya +26
Molecular photoabsorption results in an electronic excitation/ionization which couples to the rearrangement of the nuclei. The resulting intertwined change of nuclear and electroni…
