(Top raw) Snapshots of C₆₀ crystal during Coulomb explosion at different time instants after the FEL pulse irradiation corresponding to the absorbed dose of 0.28 eV/atom, photon energy of 92 eV, and FWHM pulse duration of 30 fs. Periodic boundaries are imposed along x and y axis, whereas there are free surfaces along z-direction. Reproduced from reference [88] (Middle raw) powder diffraction patterns for the corresponding atomic structures obtained with X-ray photons of 1.54 Å. (Bottom raw) Zoom into the tails of the diffraction patterns indicating intermolecular connections.
