X-ray radiation damage cycle of solvated inorganic ions

Data set pertaining to the manuscript "X-ray radiation damage cycle of solvated inorganic ions", accepted for publication at Nature Communication.

The manuscript describes results on the low-energy electron emission in a cascade of the decay of core ionized states, explored experimentally by liquid jet multi-electron coincidence spectra compared to theoretical predictions. Here we provide the underlying experimental data including metadata.

Files with extension .h5 are hdf5-files structured according to the NeXus standard v2024.02, seehttps://www.nexusformat.org/https://fairmat-experimental.github.io/nexus-fairmat-proposal/50433d9039b3f33299bab338998acb5335cd8951/mpes-structure.htmlNeXus data files can be opened with any software capable of opening hdf5-structured files. The following viewers are adapted to the specifics of the NeXus data format:* nexpy (distributed with python)* https://h5web.panosc.eu/h5wasm (web-based NeXus viewer maintained by the European Photon and Neutron Open Science Cloud-consortium)Additionally, some properties of our liquid jet sample environment are described by extensions to standard NeXus explained in a notes-section in each file.

In each NeXus file-entry, two types of data are present:1. An energy-calibrated single electron spectra as histogram of the single electron events in events/eV ('data').2. Energy-calibrated single, double and triple electron events ('raw').
