Free-electron lasers and high-harmonic-generation table-top systems are new sources of
extreme-ultraviolet to hard X-ray photons, providing ultrashort pulses that are intense …

Pump–probe experiments with subfemtosecond resolution are the key to understanding
electronic dynamics in quantum systems. Here we demonstrate the generation and control …

Ultrafast photoinduced melting provides an essential platform for studying nonequilibrium
phase transitions by linking the kinetics of electron dynamics to ionic motions. Knowledge of …

The exposure of molecules to attosecond extreme-ultraviolet (XUV) pulses offers a unique
opportunity to study the early stages of coupled electron–nuclear dynamics in which the role …

The electronic and nuclear dynamics inside molecules are essential for chemical reactions,
where different pathways typically unfold on ultrafast timescales. Extreme ultraviolet (XUV) …

We study the ultrafast dynamics initiated by a coherent superposition of core-excited states
of nitrous oxide molecule. Using high-level ab initio methods, we show that the decoherence …

Abstract Development of highly-efficient, selective, and durable CO 2 photocatalytic
reduction systems for high value-added carbon-containing chemicals or fuels is the key for …

The influence of carotenoid triplet states on the Qy electronic transitions of chlorophylls has
been observed in experiments on light-harvesting complexes over the past three decades …

The ultrashort and intense pulses of X-rays produced at X-ray free electron lasers (XFELs)
have enabled unique experiments on the atomic level structure and dynamics of matter, with …

Characterization of the inner-shell decay processes in molecules containing heavy elements
is key to understanding x-ray damage of molecules and materials and for medical …
