Coherence, decoherence and entanglement in molecular photoionization
Prof. Dr. Reinhard Dörner (Institut für Kernphysik, Universität Frankfurt)

The ejection of an electron from a homonuclear molecule like H2 closely reassambles the situation behind a double slit. The photoelectron wave emerges from either of the two indistinguishable molecular centers and leads to interference fringes in the angular distribution of the electron. We will discuss a first experiment where instead of one electron an electron pair is emitted from the two centers. We experimentally map the full 2 body wave funtion of this pair, unveiling all details of a two particle interference.
The talk will cover also several other examples of entangled 2 and 3 particle states created by the photoabsorption process at a molecule.
