Multiparticle Cumulant Mapping for Coulomb Explosion Imaging

Abstract: We extend covariance velocity map ion imaging to four particles, establishing cumulant mapping and allowing for measurements that provide insights usually associated with coincidence detection, but at much higher count rates. Without correction, a four-fold covariance analysis is contaminated by the pairwise correlations of uncorrelated events, but we have addressed this with the calculation of a full cumulant, which subtracts pairwise correlations. We demonstrate the approach on the fourbody breakup of formal… Show more

“…Collectively, these results shed light on the fragmentation behavior of 1/2-IP polycations and demonstrate the usefulness of covariance imaging analysis to study nuclear dynamics induced by inner-shell ionization. Given the recent developments in extending statistical correlation techniques to higher order correlations (involving four or more particles ,, ) and the progress in high-repetition-rate FELs, ,, we anticipate that this approach will yield a highly sensitive probe of the many-body fragmentation dynamics of highly charged polycations. Such a probe is the basis for Coulomb explosion imaging, generated by either deep single-photon inner-shell ionization of heavy elements or multiphoton ionization in intense fields. ,,, …”
