X-ray diffraction assisted spectroscopy of Rydberg states

Research output: Contribution to journal › Article › peer-review

Abstract / Description of output

X-ray diffraction combined with conventional spectroscopy could provide a powerful means to characterize electronically excited atoms and molecules. We demonstrate theoretically how x-ray diffraction from laser excited atoms can be used to determine electronic structure, including angular momentum composition, principal quantum numbers, and channel populations. A theoretical formalism appropriate for highly excited atoms, and easily extended to molecules, is presented together with numerical results for Xe and H atoms.
