Spring Physics Colloquium- Molecular Movies Made with X-ray Lasers

Dr. Philip Bucksbaum, Stanford University

When

3 – 4 p.m., Jan. 17, 2020

Where

Abstract: X-ray lasers such as LCLS at SLAC are femtosecond sources of Angstrom coherent radiation with millijoule pulse energies.  These parameters make them ideal sources to resolve the motion of atoms in molecules.  I will show recent progress toward making molecular movies with x-ray lasers.
