Concluding remarks: The age of molecular movies

Abstract

This Faraday Discussion has demonstrated enormous progress towards using advanced light sources, together with a variety of experimental and theoretical tools and techniques, to film the motion of both electrons and nuclei in molecules undergoing photo-induced reactions. The new tools are beginning to offer reliable opportunities for achieving the required spatio-temporal resolution, all the way to sub-femtosecond and sub-angstrom scales. The age of quantum molecular movies has arrived.
