Simplicity Beneath Complexity: Counting Molecular Electrons Reveals Transients and Kinetics of Photodissociation Reactions

TL;DR: Time-resolved pump-probe gas-phase X-ray scattering signals provide a measure of the number of electrons in a system, an effect that arises from the coherent addition of elastic scattering from the electrons, to identify reactive transients and determine the chemical reaction kinetics without the need for extensive scattering simulations or complicated inversion of scattering data.
