LCLS Characteristics • The LCLS beam intensity (~1013 x-rays/200 fs) is greater than the current 3rd generation sources (104 x-rays/100 ps). • Extreme focusing (KB pairs) leads to intensity ~1035 photons/s/cm2 (~ 1020 W/cm2 for 800 eV x- rays) • Nonlinear and strong-field effects are expected when the LCLS beam is focused to a spot diameter of 1μm. • BUT, electron’s ponderomotive (quiver motion) important at low frequencies IS negligible in the x-ray regime (λ2).
AMOS Inst.Team Short-Long Range Plans: • High Field: Using the extremely high brightness of the LCLS we propose to study: • multiple ionization atoms & simple molecules with angle-resolved spectroscopy and ion imaging to understand basic phenomena in highly excited matter • High-field photoionization in clusters (of various types) • Low density ionic targets: atoms, molecules, fragments, clusters, biomolecules by photoelectron and ion imaging techniques • Time-Resolved: Temporal resolution will be used to perform: • Inner-shell photoelectron spectroscopy of molecules (pump-probe using lasers) into specific states. • Inner-shell photoelectron imaging of isolated biomolecules to follow their chemistry in natural time scale
Double K Vacancy in Gas-Phase Systems → Possible Consequences • The decay of the KK-vacancy state will produce higher charge states • This process → extensive fragmentation in molecules • This process → damage consideration in experiments on Bio-molecules?

Molecular dynamics simulations indicate that standard collisional heating cannot fully account for the strong energy absorption.
In contrast with earlier studies in IR and VUV spectral regime, we find NO evidence for electron emission from plasma heating processes; Multistep ionization process is dominant hν=37.8 eV, <N>~100, I=3x1013W/cm2 @25 fs
Proposed at LCLS: Ion, e-, and Scattering Experiments on Clusters • Study the Dynamics of Cluster Explosion as a Function of Cluster Size, Wavelengths, Intensity: Is it a Coulomb Explosion Picture(as in intense optical or near IR ultrafast laser pulses) OR Explosion due to Hot Nanoplasma(multiple scattering from the cluster atoms can confine electrons yielding a nanoplasma); Explosion Time can be Different OR, New mechanisms?? • Will Collective Electron Effects be important as in the dynamics of IR irradiated large clusters?
