Research Abstract |
The resonance condition observed in the collision between a low-energy electron with a molecule can be broadly classified into two forms; shape resonance-whereby the electron is temporarily trapped by the molecular potential, and the Feshback resonance-which proceeds via electronic excitation. Both the core-level absorption spectrum observed in molecular collisions with soft X-ray photons and that observed in the region above the ionization threshold are dominated by shape resonances. This shape resonance observed in the photon-molecule collision is due to a process whereby the photoelectron is temporarily trapped by the molecular potential and later released, that is, ideally the same as the shape resonance phenomenon in low-energy molecular collisions. With the aim of investigating the dynamics involved in shape resonance phenomena, our group has embarked on a research involving systematic studies of shape resonances in low-energy electron collisions and those observed in high resolution core-level photoionization. In comparing the core-level ionization state with the ground state though the Coulomb potentials differ, the valence electronic configurations are identical. While focusing on this point, we studied the shape resonance phenomena for molecules with similar symmetry, energy, vibrational and electronic excitation for both electron collision and core-level photoionization. This not only managed to elucidate on the shape resonance phenomena in a many-body system, but also showed the failure of the adiabatic potential approximation in describing the motion of the electron and nucleus. In order to achieve this goal, some basic molecules were studied; using the low-energy electron collision apparatus at Sophia University, while experiments were carried out at the Spring-8 using the coincidence technique between the core-level photoelectron and the photoelectron-ion. We understood the dynamics involved in the decaying of the molecular shape resonance states.
