During the last decade, density function theory (DFT) in its static and dynamic time
dependent forms, has emerged as a powerful tool to describe the structure and dynamics of …

Helium nanodroplets, commonly regarded as the 'nearly ideal spectroscopic matrix', are
being actively studied for more than two decades now. While they mostly serve as cold …

Photoionization spectroscopy and mass spectrometry of doped helium (He) nanodroplets
rely on the ability to efficiently detect ions and/or electrons. Using a commercial quadrupole …

We demonstrate a novel method to ionize molecules or molecular clusters by proton transfer
at temperatures below 1 K. The method yields nascent ions and largely eliminates …

Phase-modulated wave packet interferometry is combined with mass-resolved photoion
detection to investigate rubidium atoms attached to helium nanodroplets in a molecular …

The real-time dynamics of excited alkali metal atoms (Rb) attached to quantum fluid He
nanodroplets is investigated using femtosecond imaging spectroscopy and time-dependent …

We present a combined ion imaging and density functional theory study of the dynamics of
the desorption process of rubidium and cesium atoms off the surface of helium nanodroplets …

The real-time dynamics of photoexcited and photoionized rubidium (Rb) atoms attached to
helium (He) nanodroplets is studied by femtosecond pump-probe mass spectrometry. While …

Doped He nanodroplets are ideal model systems to study the dynamics of elementary
photophysical processes in heterogeneous nanosystems. Here we present a combined …

The dynamics of laser-excited sodium atoms at the surface of helium nanodroplets has been
investigated as a function of quantum state. For all cases, excitation of the system leads to …
