Ultrafast Nuclear Dynamics in Double-Core Ionized Water Molecules

Iyas Ismail, Ludger Inhester, Tatiana Marchenko +30

Double-core-hole (DCH) states in isolated water and heavy water molecules, resulting from the sequential absorption of two x-ray photons, have been investigated. A comparison of th…

Clocking Auger Electrons

D. C. Haynes, M. Wurzer, A. Schletter +34

Intense X-ray free-electron lasers (XFELs) can rapidly excite matter, leaving it in inherently unstable states that decay on femtosecond timescales. As the relaxation occurs primar…
