Chemical function arises from the interplay among valence electrons. Thus, a view at the evolution of the highest occupied molecular orbitals (HOMOs) during a chemical reaction promises direct insight into the fundamentals of chemistry. For this purpose we employ tomographic molecular-frame photoelectron imaging of spatially confined ensembles of indole strong-field ionised by intense near-infrared laser pulses. Reconstructed static three-dimensional photoelectron distributions in molecular-frame momentum space (MF-ARPES) will be presented. The evaluation of the intensity differentials of these MF-ARPES allows for the mapping of the molecule’s valence electronic structure and enables the investigation of strong-field ionisation phenomena in the intermediate regime between multi-photon and tunneling ionisation.
