Deskripsi
Sudden ionisation of larger molecules can initiate a correlation-driven process called charge migration, but due to its short time scale this process is challenging to observe. Here, the authors ionise adenine with extreme ultraviolet light and observe electron correlation in the molecule at the attosecond scale in real-time.
