Abstract
- After sudden ionization of a large molecule, the positive charge can migrate throughout the system on a sub-femtosecond time scale, purely guided by electronic coherences. The possibility to actively explore the role of the electron dynamics in the photo-chemistry of bio-relevant molecules is of fundamental interest for understanding, and perhaps ultimately controlling, the processes leading to damage, mutation and, more generally, to the alteration of the biological functions of the macromolecule. Attosecond laser sources can provide the extreme time resolution required to follow this ultrafast charge flow. In this review we will present recent advances in attosecond molecular science: after a brief description of the results obtained for small molecules, recent experimental and theoretical findings on charge migration in bio-relevant molecules will be discussed<br />We acknowledge the support from the European Research Council under the ERC grants no. 637756 STARLIGHT, no. 227355 ELYCHE and no. 290853 XCHEM, LASERLABEUROPE (grant agreement no. 284464, European Commissions Seventh Framework Programme), European COST Action CM1204 XLIC, the Ministerio de Ciencia e Innovación project FIS2013-42002-R, European grants MC-ITN CORINF and MC-RG ATTOTREND 268284, UKs Science and Technology Facilities Council Laser Loan Scheme, the Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council (grant EP/J007048/ 1), the Leverhulme Trust (grant RPG-2012-735), and the Northern Ireland Department of Employment and Learning
