title = "Time-resolved dynamics of thiophene dication - Probing parent molecule survival times and multi-step dissociation processes of cyclic molecules by free-electron-laser experiments combined with theoretical simulations",
abstract = "Thiophene is a cyclic molecule that becomes unstable as a molecular dication. We followed the multi-step dissociation dynamics triggered by soft x-ray FEL pulses from SACLA, core-ionizing the S 2p orbital and creating parent dications by the Auger decay. The time-evolution was probed by optical laser pulsesthat reveal the survival lifetime of the parent dication and the build-up of fragmentation proceeding by ring opening and rupture, accompanied by hydrogen ejection and secondary dissociation. Experimental results are compared to statistical analysis of molecular dynamics simulations.",
