Ultraintense x-ray induced ionization, dissociation, and frustrated absorption in molecular nitrogen.

چکیده
Sequential multiple photoionization of the prototypical molecule N2 is studied with femtosecond time resolution using the Linac Coherent Light Source (LCLS). A detailed picture of intense x-ray induced ionization and dissociation dynamics is revealed, including a molecular mechanism of frustrated absorption that suppresses the formation of high charge states at short pulse durations. The inverse scaling of the average target charge state with x-ray peak brightness has possible implications for single-pulse imaging applications.

Ultrafast dynamics of strong-field dissociative ionization of CH2Br2 probed by femtosecond soft x-ray transient absorption spectroscopy
Femtosecond time-resolved soft x-ray transient absorption spectroscopy based on a high-order harmonic generation source is used to investigate the dissociative ionization of CH2Br2 induced by 800 nm strong-field irradiation. At moderate peak intensities (2.0 × 10 W/cm), strong-field ionization is accompanied by ultrafast C–Br bond dissociation, producing both neutral Br (P3/2) and Br* (P1/2) at...
متن کاملX-ray Pump–Probe Investigation of Charge and Dissociation Dynamics in Methyl Iodine Molecule
Molecular dynamics is of fundamental interest in natural science research. The capability of investigating molecular dynamics is one of the various motivations for ultrafast optics. We present our investigation of photoionization and nuclear dynamics in methyl iodine (CH3I) molecule with an X-ray pump X-ray probe scheme. The pump–probe experiment was realized with a two-mirror X-ray split and d...
متن کاملThree-dimensional attosecond resonant stimulated X-ray Raman spectroscopy of electronic excitations in core-ionized glycine.
We investigate computationally the valence electronic excitations of the amino acid glycine prepared by a sudden nitrogen core ionization induced by an attosecond X-ray pump pulse. The created superposition of cationic excited states is probed by two-dimensional transient X-ray absorption and by three dimensional attosecond stimulated X-ray Raman signals. The latter, generated by applying a sec...

Knowing patient exact dose during radiological activities is considered as one of the main principles to decrease radiation-induced dangers which are not really necessary and affect a great deal of people. In this respect, in recent years many extensive studies have been done on types of photodiodes and production of X-ray detectors using semiconductor elements. Since these elements are not ver...

Experimental results are presented from an experiment in which ionization created by a highenergy x-ray synchrotron radiation beam intersecting an ethylene diffusion flame is measured.The ionization signal is believed to arise from x-ray absorption by aggregated soot particles.Comparisons are made between these ionization profiles and those due to natural flameionization. Visibl...
