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…
Upstream Laser-based Longitudinal Enhancement of Relativistic Photoelectrons
Hao Zhang, Randy Lemons, Jack Hirschman +23
Controlling the longitudinal phase space of high-brightness relativistic electron beams is crucial for advancing a broad spectrum of charged-particle-based instrumentation and scie…
A Hybrid Neural Architecture: Online Attosecond X-ray Characterization
Jack Hirschman, Benjamin Mencer, Razib Obaid +2
The emergence of high-repetition-rate x-ray free-electron lasers, such as SLAC's LCLS-II, serve as our canonical example for autonomous controls that necessitate high-throughput di…
Nonlinear reversal of photo-excitation on the attosecond time scale improves ultrafast x-ray diffraction images
Anatoli Ulmer, Phay J. Ho, Bruno Langbehn +28
The advent of isolated and intense sub-femtosecond X-ray pulses enables tracking of quantummechanical motion of electrons in molecules and solids. The combination of X-ray spectros…
Attosecond X-ray Core-level Chronoscopy of Aromatic Molecules
Jia-Bao Ji, Zhaoheng Guo, Taran Driver +32
Attosecond photoemission or photoionization delays are a unique probe of the structure and the electronic dynamics of matter. However, spectral congestion and spatial delocalizatio…
Spectrotemporal shaping of attosecond x-ray pulses with a fresh-slice free-electron laser
River R. Robles, Kirk A. Larsen, David Cesar +14
We propose a scheme allowing coherent shaping, i.e., controlling both the amplitude and phase, of attosecond x-ray pulses at free-electron lasers. We show that by seeding an FEL wi…
