We employ the velocity map imaging technique to measure kinetic energy and angular distributions of state selected CH3 (v2=0,1,2,3) and Br (2P3/2,2P1/2) photofragments produced by methyl bromide photolysis at 215.9 nm. These results show…
We describe an apparatus to study the fragmentation of ion-molecule clusters triggered by laser excitation and transfer of an electron from the iodide to the neutral molecule. The apparatus comprises a source to generate ion-molecule…
We have studied the ionization and fragmentation of $SO_2$ molecular target in collision with 1 MeV proton beam using the technique of recoil ion momentum spectroscopy. Fragmentation dynamics of doubly charged $SO_2^{2+}$ molecular ion has…
Understanding how light interstitials migrate in chemically complex alloys is essential for predicting defect dynamics and long-term stability. Here, we introduce a spectral sampling framework to quantify boron diffusion activation energies…
Photocatalytic water splitting represents a pivotal pathway for converting solar energy into chemical energy, with the core challenge lying in the design and optimization of photocatalysts [1] . TiO2, as a quintessential photocatalytic…
Imaging surfaces using low energy neutral atom scattering is a relatively recent development in the field of microscopy. In this work we demonstrate that this technique is sensitive enough to distinguish films as thin as a single monolayer…
Velocity map imaging inside an electrostatic quadrupole guide is demonstrated. By switching the voltages that are applied to the rods, the quadrupole can be used for guiding Stark decelerated molecules and for extracting the ions. The…
We present an approach that combines photon spectrum correlation analysis with the reconstruction of three-dimensional momentum distribution from velocity map images in an efficient, single-step procedure. We demonstrate its efficacy with…
Over the last four decades, persistent and flaring emission of magnetars observed by various telescopes has provided us with a suite of light curves and spectra in soft and hard X-rays, with no emission yet detected above around 1 MeV.…
We discuss a series of results aimed at bringing saturation physics and gluon tomography into an era of precision. In particular, the NLO treatment of diffractive: 1) exclusive dijet, 2) exclusive longitudinally polarized light vector meson…
Ionic liquid ion sources are a promising technology that can be used for many applications from space propulsion to focused ion beam microetching. Ionic liquid ion sources produce ion beams by extracting single ions and metastable solvated…
The fragmentation mode of high-mass molecular clumps and the properties of the central rotating structures surrounding the most luminous objects have yet to be comprehensively characterised. Using the IRAM NOrthern Extended Millimeter Array…
We study theoretically the behavior of laser-cooled calcium monofluoride (CaF) molecules in an optical molasses and magneto-optical trap (MOT), and compare our results to recent experiments. We use multi-level optical Bloch equations to…
Electron transport is of fundamental importance, and has application in a variety of fields. Different scattering mechanisms affect electron transport in solids. It is important to comprehensively understand these mechanisms and their…
We have demonstrated a new, accessible and economical technique, dubbed photostop, for producing high densities of trappable molecules. Direct measurements are presented of NO molecules produced with a narrow velocity distribution centered…
We modelled \HH\ and CO formation incorporating the fractionation and selective photodissociation affecting CO when \AV\ $\la2$mag. UV absorption measurements typically have N(\cotw)/N(\coth) $\approx 65$ that are reproduced with the…
Photodissociation is the dominant removal process of molecules in any region exposed to intense ultraviolet (UV) radiation. This includes diffuse and translucent interstellar clouds, dense photon-dominated regions, high velocity shocks, the…
We demonstrate a three-dimensional magneto-optical trap (MOT) of a metal hydride molecule, CaH. We are able to scatter $\sim$$10^{4}$ photons with vibrational loss covered up to vibrational quantum number $\nu=2$. This allows us to laser…
Gas-phase oxygen-rich iron oxide clusters Fe(O2)n+ (n=1-6), are produced in a molecular beam apparatus. Their stability and structure are investigated by measuring the fragmentation cross sections from collision-induced-dissociation…
Velocity map imaging (VMI) is a powerful technique that allows to infer the kinetic energy of ions or electrons that are produced from a large volume in space with good resolution. The size of the acceptance volume is determined by the…
