Hydrogen atoms under the microscope  
Direct observation of node structures in electronic states of the hydrogen atom  
Synchronous motion of electrons in neighboring molecules - an ultrafast X-ray film over metal complexes in a crystal  
Using femtosecond X-ray diffraction, researchers from the Max Born Institute in Berlin (Germany) and the Ecole Polytechnique Federale de Lausanne (Switzerland) were able to observe an extremely…  
Small and efficient - water nanodroplets cool biomolecules extremely fast  
Researchers at the Max Born Institute in Berlin have observed how biomolecules within 1 ps transfer thermal energy into the smallest drops of water in their environment. For this purpose, a shell…  
Ingo Barth of the Max Born Institut is a junior scientist of the year 2012  
Dr. Ingo Barth has been named a Young Scientist of the Year by academics.de. The now 36-year-old studied physics at the Technical University of Berlin and earned his doctorate at the FU Berlin in…  
Are there any electrical currents in an insulator?  
The femtosecond X-ray team (Project 3.3) observed an extremely rapid exchange of electrons between neighboring atoms after applying a strong optical field to an insulator. The spatial electron…  
Julius Springer Prize 2012 goes to Thomas Elsässer and Horst Weller  
Scientists are honored for their pioneering achievements and detailed understanding of elemental processes at the sub-nanoscale.  
How to overtake electron-vibrating atomic nuclei - the X-ray film  
Researchers at the Max Born Institute in Berlin followed the spatial vibrational motion of electrons in a crystal in real time by turning a film using ultrashort X-ray flashes. The outer electrons…  
Electrons are not always the easiest way  
During ionization in a strong laser field, an electron is released from a molecule. So far, physicists believed that this is the weakest bound electron in the molecule. A research group has now…  
Generation of terahertz radiation by ionizing two-color femtosecond pulses in gases  
Scientists from the Max Born Institute, in collaboration with foreign cooperation partners, have theoretically elucidated the basic mechanism in the generation of terahertz radiation in gases,…
