Small rare gas clusters in soft X-ray pulses
Abstract
We develop a microscopic model for the interaction of small rare gas clusters with soft X-ray radiation. It is shown that, while the overall charging of the clusters is rather low, unexpectedly high atomic charge states can arise due to charge imbalances inside the cluster. The mechanism does not require unusually high absorption rates, and the heating can be described by standard inverse bremsstrahlung formulae.
