Probing nucleobase photoprotection with soft x-rays

Probing nucleobase photoprotection with soft x-rays

Nucleobases absorb strongly in the ultraviolet region, leading to molecular excitation into reactive states. The molecules avoid the photoreactions by funnelling the electronic energy into less reactive states on an ultrafast timescale via non-Born-Oppenheimer dynamics. Current theory on the nucleob...
