In single particle imaging experiments, beams of individual nanoparticles are exposed to intense pulses of x-rays from free-electron lasers to record diffraction patterns of single, isolated molecules. The reconstruction for structure determination relies on signal from many identical particles. Therefore, well-defined-sample delivery conditions are desired in order to achieve sample uniformity, including avoidance of charge polydispersity. We have observed charging of 220 nm polystyrene particles in an aerosol beam created by a gas-dynamic virtual nozzle focusing technique, without intentional charging of the nanoparticles. Here, we present a deflection method for detecting and characterizing the charge states of a beam of aerosolized nanoparticles. Our analysis of the observed charge-state distribution using optical light-sheet localization microscopy and quantitative particle trajectory simulations is consistent with previous descriptions of skewed charging probabilities of triboelectrically charged nanoparticles.
A strong inhomogeneous static electric field is used to spatially disperse a rotationally cold supersonic beam of 2,6-difluoroiodobenzene molecules according to their rotational quantum state. The molecules in the lowest lying rotational states are s
A strong inhomogeneous static electric field is used to spatially disperse a supersonic beam of polar molecules, according to their quantum state. We show that the molecules residing in the lowest-lying rotational states can be selected and used as t
The lowest doublet electronic state for the lithium trimer (2A) is calculated for use in three-body scattering calculations using the valence electron FCI method with atomic cores represented using an effective core potential. It is shown that an acc
Chirped-Pulse millimetre-Wave (CPmmW) rotational spectroscopy provides a new class of information about photolysis transition state(s). Measured intensities in rotational spectra determine species-isomer-vibrational populations, provided that rotatio
We make use of an inhomogeneous electrostatic dipole field to impart a quantum-state-dependent deflection to a pulsed beam of OCS molecules, and show that those molecules residing in the absolute ground state, $X ^1Sigma^+$, $ket{00^00}$, J=0, can be
