Dissociative electron attachment (DEA) has been identified as a possible process for radiation damage. In short, DEA is a resonant two-step process in which first a low-energetic electron is captured by a molecule. The created negative ion can subsequently dissociate while the captured electron stays attached to one of the fragments. Detailed understanding of this reaction in biologically relevant molecules is crucial to improve its understanding. We investigated the heterocyclic organic compounds furan and pyridine as prototypes of typical organic molecules. Using a momentum imaging apparatus to detect the negative ions, we investigated the differential cross sections of several fragments after dissociation for each target molecule. From the resonance energy for formation of the fragment, combined with their kinetic energy and angular distributions, we can gain information about the dissociation process.

Our experimental results are compared to recent ab initio calculations with the goal to connect the dissociation process to specific electron scattering resonances in the target molecule.
