Vibrationally resolved molecular frame photoelectron angular distributions of diatomic and polyatomic molecules

Vibrationally resolved molecular frame photoelectron angular distributions (MFPADs) of fixed-in-space molecules have been evaluated for diatomic and polyatomic molecules. Calculations have been performed by using an extension of the static-exchange density functional theory formerly developed by P. Decleva [1] and coworkers and extended in order to include the nuclear motion in the Born-Oppenheimer approximation. The method proved to be very accurate for diatomic molecules [2, 3, 5], particularly at high energy of the photoelectron. In this work, we present the results obtained for the inner shell photoionization of C₂H₂, NH₃, CH₄, CF₄, BF₃ and SF₆.
