Molecular Frame Angular Distributions (MFADs) of slow electrons released by Interatomic Coulombic Decay in van der Waals dimers are studied by the Single Center (SC) method [1] including the underlying nuclear dynamics. Specifically, we considered the spectator resonant ICD after 2s−np inner valence excitation of Ne dimers, which is the dominant decay pathway for n≥5 [2]. In addition, we investigated the photoionization of HeNe across the He(1s3p) excitation which is a good candidate for the antenna-receiver mechanism [3]. Theoretical predictions for HeNe are in good agreement with the results of the coincidence experiments carried out by COLTRIMS technique [4]. It is demonstrated that MFAD of the resonant ICD electrons provides a direct access to the symmetry of the intermediate electronic states.
