With the development of liquid microjets the interest in the investigation of the molecular structure of volatile liquids after X-ray irradiation increased progressively. This structure was probed by different measurement techniques ranging from the detection of charged particles, Raman spectroscopy to X-ray emission spectroscopy and revealed e.g. interatomic coulombic decay processes in liquid water as well as different types of hydrogen bonds in bulk liquid water. However, the low energy photon emission regime, i.e. the wavelength region from 40 nm to 650 nm, remains hitherto unexplored. This spectral range acts as a complementary tool for the other techniques allowing a deeper understanding of the still not fully understood molecular structure of liquids, solvated (bio-)molecules and the interaction of solvents and solutes. Here we present an experimental set-up for the detection of dispersed photons with emission wavelengths from 40 nm to 650 nm. It can be easily adapted for the additional measurement of photoelectrons allowing a direct comparison of photon and electron emission.
