A new vision for molecular science

The 3D momentum imaging technique was developed during the nineties in the synchrotron radiation community with the COLTRIMS technique (COLd-Target Recoil-Ion-Momentum Spectroscopy, Dorner et al, Physics Reports, 330, 96 (2000)). The rapid development in time and position sensitive detectors enabled dramatic improvement of multi-coincidence methods, where momentum imaging of several charges particles opened up the field of molecular imaging. The level of sophistication today allows for nearly “complete” measurement of molecular fragmentation and is thus known as reaction microscope to study atomic and molecular dynamics. It offers a unique way to access complex photo-processes such as the 4-Body problems (Weber et al, Nature 431, 437 (2004)), the double slit interference (Akoury at al, Science 318, 949 (2007)), and the localization and loss of coherence in molecules (Zimmermann et al, Nature Physics 4, 649 (2008)).
