Abstract

We use extremely intense, ultrashort soft X-Ray pulses generated by the LCLS X-Ray Free Electron Laser to investigate the production of molecular double core-hole states by sequential two-photon X-Ray absorp- tion. The effect of critical LCLS parameters such as the number of photons per pulse, the pulse duration, and the focal spot size on the photoelectron and Auger spectra is modeled in detail and the results of these simulations are used as an aid in the interpretation of the experimental spectra obtained. The emphasis is on double core-hole formation in small polyatomic molecules such as CO2.
