Experimental studies of Interatomic Coulombic Decay — •Till Jahnke — Goethe Universität Frankfurt, Institut für Kernphysik, Max-von-Laue-Str. 1, 60438 Frankfurt

Interatomic (or intermolecular) Coulombic Decay (ICD) has become an extensively studied electronic decay process during the last 15 years. Originally proposed by Cederbaum et al. [1] it was experimentally identified by means of different techniques [2,3,4] in the early 2000s. In ICD an excited atom or molecule deexcites by transferring its excitation energy to a loosely bound atomic neighbor and leads to the emission of an electron at that neighbor. Since that time a wealth of experimental and theoretical studies have shown that ICD is a rather common decay path in nature, as it occurs ''almost everywhere'' in loosely bound matter.

The talk will give a short introduction on ICD and report on recent experimental advances in the field covering time-resolved studies on the cluster size dependence of the efficiency of the decay and more detailed studies of different decaying systems.
