Description
At the free-electron laser in Hamburg (FLASH) a reaction microscope (REMI) is used to study the dynamics of atoms and small molecules following photoexcitation. With this setup, the momenta of charged fragments (ions and electrons) are measured in coincidence, allowing for detailed insights into molecular states and geometries.
We use a Python program to simulate the trajectories of the charged particles and predict the expected detector images in the REMI. Within this project this code will be further developed to include also the simulation of molecular geometry changes on the experimental outcome. The project offers a great opportunity to learn about atomic and molecular physics experiments at FELs, advanced experimental techniques and gain experience in Python programming.
