Ultrafast X-rays capture chemistry unfolding atom by atom
✦AI Summary
Scientists used ultrafast X-ray flashes to observe how energy moves through a molecule at the atomic level immediately after light absorption. This technique allows researchers to track chemical reactions in real time, providing insights into how molecules change shape and redistribute energy.
Scientists have observed how energy moves through a molecule immediately after it absorbs light, revealing that individual atoms can record very different parts of the transformation.
