Generation of highly damaging H2O+ radicals by inner valence shell ionization of water

Bye bye friend: Water molecules surround all biological structures. Inner-valence ionization of water, followed by intermolecular Coulombic decay, generates two water radical cations in close proximity. The two fragments strongly repel each other and quickly separate, gaining a large amount of trans...

Description
Summary:Bye bye friend: Water molecules surround all biological structures. Inner-valence ionization of water, followed by intermolecular Coulombic decay, generates two water radical cations in close proximity. The two fragments strongly repel each other and quickly separate, gaining a large amount of translational and rotational energy (see graphic).
