We report a measurement of the ionization efficiency of silicon nuclei recoiling with sub-keV kinetic energy in the bulk silicon of a charge-coupled device (CCD). Nuclear recoils are produced by low-energy neutrons ($<$24 keV) from a…
Photoionization of an atom $A$, in the presence of a neighboring atom $B$, can proceed via resonant excitation of $B$ with subsequent energy transfer to $A$ through two-center electron-electron correlation. We demonstrate that this…

For two-electron diatomic molecules, we investigate magnetic field effects in non-sequential double ionization where recollisions prevail. We do so by formulating a three-dimensional semi-classical model that fully accounts for the Coulomb…
