By measuring an 11-atom molecule with an incredibly powerful X-ray laser, researchers have seen how its atoms make slight synchronized movements, even when they should be stationary The European Xfel accelerator tunnel, the installation where the tiny atomic movement was measured For the first time, a laser [...]

Researchers at the European XFEL tracked the movement of individual atoms during a chemical reaction in the gas phase in real time. With the help of extremely short X-ray flashes, the formation of an iod molecule (I2) from diiodmethane (CH2I2) caused by infrared light was closely monitored.
