Recently, we were able to extend the chemical shift concept to excited state molecular dynamics [1]. Here, we present a follow-up experiment performed at FLASH, showing C 1s time-resolved photoelectron spectra of 2-thiouracil after UV excitation. The photoelectron spectra show a strong shift towards lower binding energies suggesting a charge movement towards the pyrimidine ring. These measurements verify the concept of the excited-state chemical shift [1] and pave the way to create electronic molecular movies for the UV-induced relaxation using time-resolved x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy.
