Photodetachment Studies of Atomic Negative Ions Through Velocity-Map Imaging Spectroscopy
The technique of velocity-map imaging (VMI) spectroscopy as been adapted to a keV-level negative ion beamline for studies of photon-negative ion collisions. The design and operation of the VMI spectrometer takes into consideration the use of continuous, fast-moving (5 keV to 10 keV) ion beams, as …

Towards molecular reconstruction in Coulomb explosion imaging
The interaction of a fast laser with molecules at the femtosecond time scale, leads to the latter losing most of its valence electrons and become positively charged. The molecule which was initially in an equilibrium state, undergoes internal repulsion which leads to fragmentation of the molecule …

Photoelectron Imaging of Iodide Centered Alkyl Halide Cluster Anions
<p>This dissertation presents results from cluster anion photodetachment experiments of the solvated iodide anion as a means of investigating electron molecule interaction. Due to the localization of the excess charge on the iodine atom, these experiments proceed analogously to electron scattering …

Photoelectron circular dichroism of anionic chiral metal complexes and deprotonated molecules
… either linear or circular polarized light. Using velocity map imaging (VMI) photoelectron spectroscopy, the kinetic energy of the detached electron and its spatial distribution are recorded, providing insight into the energy-resolved PECD. Unfortunately, gold complexes do not reveal any PECD but …
