  • Ultrafast Structural Changes in Chiral Molecules Measured with FreeElectron Lasers

  • This has been demonstrated for vibrational excitations[3], multiphoton interactions[4] and ultrafast structural changes[5]. Such exceptional sensitivity of photoelectron circular dichroism (PECD) opens unique perspectives for addressing nonlinear and ultrafast phenomena with VUV and X-ray free-electron lasers that can uniquely enable site selective interrogation of an observing atomic site. Such pump-probe experiments on chiral systems are challenging in terms of their technical, physical andchemical complexity
