Multiple core ionization down to I 2p subshells creates highly charged molecular states, the fragmentation of which was studied by ion momentum imaging multiparticle coincidence technique. We report experimental and modeling results on various dissociation pathways, fragment momentum correlations, and kinetic energy releases.Creative Commons Attribution 3.0 licencehttps://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/Electronic decay and fragmentation dynamics of iodomethane, multiply core-ionized by photoabsorption of intense XFEL pulsesText
