Infrared Spectroscopy of mass/charge selected biomolecules in liquid helium droplets — •Gert von Helden — Fritz-Haber-Institut der Max-Planck-Gesellschaft, Berlin

Mass-to-charge selected ions are accumulated in an ion trap and picked up by a traversing beam of helium droplets. The doped droplets are probed by light from the Fritz-Haber-Institut Free-Electron-Laser (FHI-FEL) and IR spectra of the embedded species are recorded. Results for several types of biological molecules ranging from peptides to proteins and carbohydrates will be presented.
