}Computer simulations are used to investigate the structural information that can be recovered from the scattering of intense femtosecond X-ray pulses by single protein molecules and small assemblies and predict that ultrashort, high-intensity X-rays from free-electron lasers that are currently under development will provide a new approach to structural determinations with X- rays.

Femtosecond X-ray-induced explosion of C60 at extreme intensity
An experimental and theoretical study of C60 molecules interacting with intense X-ray pulses from a free-electron laser reveals the influence of processes not previously reported, illustrating the successful use of classical mechanics to describe all moving particles in C60, an approach that scales well to larger systems, for example, biomolecules.
