Femtosecond Nonadiabatic Confinement of Molecular Dication Yield
Carlos Marante, Lina Fransén, Alexie Boyer +5
Doubly charged molecular cations often carry signatures of electronic correlation and electron-nuclear entanglement present in the parent cation. Here, we produce ethylene dication…

Ultrafast probing of isotope-induced explciit symmetry breaking in ethylene
Alessandro Nicola Nardi, Alexie Boyer, Yaowei Hu +4
Symmetry governs nature's law, yet many of the natural phenomena occur due to the breakdown of symmetry. Here, we show how isotope-induced inversion symmetry breaking influences ul…

Tracking photophysical relaxation in spiropyran with simulated time-resolved X-ray absorption spectroscopy
Lina Fransén, Benjamin Roux, Sonia Coriani +2
Spiropyran is a prototype photoswitch that undergoes photoinduced ring-opening via C-O bond fission. The quantum yield for this photochemical reaction is low, with photophysical re…
