Imaging electron-density fluctuations by multidimensional X-ray photon-coincidence diffraction

Journal Article Ye, Lyuzhou ; Rouxel, Jérémy R. ; Cho, Daeheum ; ... - Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America

The ultrafast spontaneous electron-density fluctuation dynamics in molecules is studied theoretically by off-resonant multiple X-ray diffraction events. The time- and wavevector-resolved photon-coincidence signals give an image of electron-density fluctuations expressed through the four-point correlation function of the charge density in momentum space. A Fourier transform of the signal provides a real-space image of the multipoint charge-density correlation functions, which reveal snapshots of the evolving electron density in between the diffraction events. Finally, the proposed technique is illustrated by ab initio simulations of the momentum- and real-space inelastic scattering signals from a linear cyanotetracetylene molecule.

Multidimensional photon correlation spectroscopy of cavity polaritons

Journal Article Dorfman, Konstantin E. ; Mukamel, Shaul - Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America

Significance We propose a spectroscopic technique that can track the time-dependent state of a dressed molecule in an optical cavity (polariton) by measuring coincidence of two emitted photons. The proposed technique offers an independent control of the spectral and temporal resolution; single-photon detection allows for low-intensity measurements, which do not disturb the state of the cavity field, and time-dependent atom/cavity coupling provides a control tool. Tracking the evolution of the polariton states with time-dependent atom/cavity coupling should be of interest in photochemistry and photobiology and could improve fundamental understanding of many physical processes in strongly coupled atom/radiation states.

Most theoretical approaches used in nuclear astrophysics to model the nucleosynthesis of heavy elements incorporate the so-called statistical model in order to describe the excitation and decay properties of atomic nuclei. One of the basic assumptions of this model is the validity of the Brink–Axel hypothesis and the related concept of so-called photon strength functions to describe γ-ray transition probabilities. We present a novel experimental approach that allows for the first time to experimentally determine the photon strength function simultaneously in two independent ways by a unique combination of quasi-monochromatic photon beams and a newly implemented γ–γ coincidence setup. This technique does not assume a priori the validity of the Brink–Axel hypothesis and sets a benchmark in terms of the detection sensitivity for measuring decay properties of photo-excited states below the neutron separation energy. The data for the spherical off-shell nucleus ¹²⁸Te were obtained for γ-ray beam-energy settings between 3 MeV and 9 MeV in steps of 130 keV for the lower beam energies and in steps of up to 280 keV for the highest beam settings. We present a quantitative analysis on the consistency of the derived photon strength function with the Brink–Axel hypothesis. The data clearly demonstrate a discrepancy of up to a factor of two between the photon strength functions extracted from the photoabsorption and photon emission process, respectively. In addition, we observe that the photon strength functions are not independent of the excitation energy, as usually assumed. Thus, we conclude, that the Brink–Axel hypothesis is not strictly fulfilled in the excitation-energy region below the neutron separation threshold (S_n = 8.78 MeV) for the studied case of ¹²⁸Te.

Linear and nonlinear frequency- and time-domain spectroscopy with multiple frequency combs

Journal Article Bennett, Kochise ; Rouxel, Jeremy R. ; Mukamel, Shaul - Journal of Chemical Physics

Two techniques that employ equally spaced trains of optical pulses to map an optical high frequency into a low frequency modulation of the signal that can be detected in real time are compared. The development of phase-stable optical frequency combs has opened up new avenues to metrology and spectroscopy. The ability to generate a series of frequency spikes with precisely controlled separation permits a fast, highly accurate sampling of the material response. Recently, pairs of frequency combs with slightly different repetition rates have been utilized to down-convert material susceptibilities from the optical to microwave regime where they can be recordedmore »« less

A Time-Gated, Time-Correlated Single-Photon-Counting Lidar to Observe Atmospheric Clouds at Submeter Resolution

Journal Article Yang, Fan ; Sua, Yong Meng ; Louridas, Alexandros ; ... - Remote Sensing

Most lidars used for cloud observations have the range resolution of about 10 m, so they are incapable of resolving submeter-scale processes that are crucial to cloud evolution. This article describes a prototype of a ground-based, vertically pointing, time-gated, time-correlated single-photon-counting lidar (referred to as the T2 lidar) developed to explore atmospheric clouds at range resolution two orders of magnitude finer than traditional atmospheric lidars. The T2 lidar emits green-light pulses (532 nm) at a repetition rate of 20.6 kHz and a pulse width of ∼650 ps, which enables the observation of aerosol and cloud layers at heights from amore »« less
