Abstract:
We analyze the angular distribution of photoemission (PAD) from irradiated C60 clusters focusing on the impact of resonances on emission properties. We make a prospective investigation in terms of a widely used jellium approach, developing an improved version thereof. The jellium allows a simple access in terms of reduced dimension, which is a priori justified by the high degree of symmetry of C60. We show that the PAD is strongly affected by optical resonances, an effect, which would be certainly even enhanced if using a more realistic description of the ionic background.
