Liquids and especially liquid water have been subject to intense research for a long time due to their role in many chemical and biological systems. However, the investigation of liquid targets with fundamental methods of atomic and molecular physics, such as soft X-ray induced fluorescence spectroscopy, were a big challenge due to the required vacuum conditions. With the development of the liquid microjet technique the investigation of pure liquids or solutions after irradiation with synchrotron radiation became possible, which allows the exploration of the electronic structure of such complex systems. Here we present our results of dispersed luminescence from liquid water and demonstrate the possibilities of this detection method using this prototype system. One of the observed emission could be assigned to gas phase excited by Auger electrons escaping the liquid-vapor interface.
