A beam of polar molecules can be focused and transported through an ac electric quadrupole guide. At a given ac frequency, the transmission of the guide depends on the mass-to-dipole-moment (m/textmu) ratio of the molecular quantum state. Here we present a detailed characterization of the m/textmu selector, using a pulsed beam of benzonitrile (C$_6$H$_5$CN) molecules in combination with rotational quantum state resolved detection. The arrival time distribution as well as the transverse velocity distribution of the molecules exiting the selector are measured as a function of ac frequency. The textmu/$Delta$textmu resolution of the selector can be controlled by the applied ac waveforms and a value of up to 20 can be obtained with the present setup. This is sufficient to exclusively transmit molecules in the absolute ground state of benzonitrile, or rather in quantum states that have the same m/textmu value as the ground state. The operation characteristics of the m/textmu selector are in quantitative agreement with the outcome of trajectory simulations.
We study frustrated double ionization in a strongly-driven heteronuclear molecule HeH$^{+}$ and compare with H$_2$. We compute the probability distribution of the sum of the final kinetic energies of the nuclei for strongly-driven HeH$^{+}$. We find
Alignment of OCS, CS$_2$ and I$_2$ molecules embedded in helium nanodroplets is measured as a function of time following rotational excitation by a non-resonant, comparatively weak ps laser pulse. The distinct peaks in the power spectra, obtained by
Chirality is ubiquitous in nature and fundamental in science, from particle physics to metamaterials.The most established technique of chiral discrimination - photoabsorption circular dichroism - relies on the magnetic properties of a chiral medium a
The induced polarization of a beam of polar clusters or molecules passing through an electric or magnetic field region differs from the textbook Langevin-Debye susceptibility. This distinction, which is important for the interpretation of deflection
In the present work, we investigate the ionization of molecules of biological interest by the impact of multicharged ions in the intermediate to high energy range. We performed full non-perturbative distorted-wave calculations (CDW) for thirty-six co
