Hi everyone,
Kochise Bennett will give a Seminar on Friday at 4pm-5:30pm. We'll be
in *Mallinckrodt
217* (in the Department Center). Please find below Kochise's title and
abstract.
Cheers Christoph
title:
Ultrafast X-ray Diffraction in Single-Molecules: Signatures of Electronic
Coherence
abstact:
Ultrafast time-resolved X-ray scattering made possible by novel light
sources provides a wealth of information about electronic and nuclear
molecular dynamical processes. The technique goes beyond merely revealing
the time dependent electronic charge density traditionally used in
structure determination, also monitoring the interplay of elastic and
inelastic processes, nonadiabatic dynamics and electronic coherences. The
various ground and excited state contributions to ultrafast diffraction
from molecules in crystals, in the gas phase, and from single molecules are
surveyed and illustrated by excited state nonadiabatic dynamics simulations
of NaF.
