Ultrafast UV excitation can prepare a nonstationary coherent superposition of molecular electronic states. The purely electronic dynamics before the onset of nuclear motion can be probed by a sudden XUV ionization of the electronic wave packet. Dynamical computations at the many-electron level on the LiH and 1-azabicyclo[3.3.3]undecane (C10H19N) molecules showthat molecular frame photoelectron angular distributions reflect the spatial localization and undulations of the electronic coherent superposition accessed by the initial ultrafast UV excitation. The sudden ionization is sensitive to interference effects. [less ▲]
