The efficient interaction of X-rays with high-Z elements is an extensively explored and important topic in biomedical physics.

Here we show experimentally that resonant Auger induced Intermolecular Coulombic Decay (ICD) can indeed be observed in model systems of small nitrogen and carbon monoxide clusters and - as expected - produces low energy electrons. Furthermore our simple model systems are able to prove the efficiency of ICD: it occurs even before the individual molecule is able to undergo dissociation, i.e. on a timescale < 10 fs. Our findings therefore strongly support the idea of resonant Auger-ICD being a promising process to induce radiation damage at a specific site inside a high-Z-tagged cell.
