| Research Interests | |
| Investigation of the reaction processes( e.g. excitation, ionization, Auger decay, dissociation, and etc) in atoms, molecules and cluster under interaction with synchrotron radiation, femtosecond laser and free electron laser. Atoms and molecules are the most fundamental unit in chemical reactions, while atoms, molecules and clusters are idealized target to explore the quantum multibody problem. In principle, in microscopic world, all the reactions can be uniformly described as motions of electrons and nuclei at different spatial-temporal scale, however, it is still difficult to describe this multi-body quantum system in excited states. Synchrotron radiation provides highly monochromatic photon with energy from a few tens to several thousand eV, with which the excited state can be precisely selected. Femtosecond laser provide ultrashot/ultrastrong field, with which the dynamic processes can be observed in real time. Free electron laser combined the advantage of both synchrotron and femtosecond laser. The purpose of our research is to observe the motion of electrons and nuclei in real time in the microscopic world. |
