We have measured the molecular-frame photoelectron angular distributions (MFPADs) for inner-shell photoionization of the halomethanes CH3F, CH3I, and CF3I in the gas-phase. Using our new double-sided velocity map imaging (VMI) spectrometer optimized for electron-ion coincidence measurements of high-kinetic energy electrons, we are able to determined MFPADs for photoelectrons up to 300 eV. For these high kinetic energies, the MFPADs are dominated by diffraction effects that encode information on the molecular geometry in the MFPADs.
