The coherent evolution of an electron hole in a photoionized molecule represents an unexplored facet of charge transfer phenomena occurring in complex systems. Using ultrafast extreme ultraviolet spectroscopy, we investigate the real-time dynamics of an electron hole wave packet created near a conical intersection in CO 2 . We resolve the oscillation of the electron hole density between σ and π character, driven by the coupled bending and asymmetric stretch vibrations of the molecule. We also quantify the mixing between electron hole configurations and find that the wave packet coherence diminishes with time due to thermal dephasing.

Fundamentally, molecular charge dynamics are driven by either electron correlation effects or through the coupling of electronic and nuclear degrees of freedom. Therefore, the natural time scale for charge motion lies in the attosecond to femtosecond regime. Recent developments in attosecond, extreme ultraviolet (XUV) science provide new opportunities for the real-time investigation of electron dynamics in atomic [3-6] and molecular systems [7][8][9][10][11][12][13]. Specifically, by virtue of the high photon energy, ultrafast XUV pulses allow access to electron hole dynamics in photoionized molecules, an unexplored class of charge transfer phenomena [14][15][16]. Compared to the electron dynamics in neutral molecules, a photoionized molecule is an open system where additional interactions, including photoelectron entanglement [17], can influence the charge dynamics.Ultrafast electron hole dynamics in a photoionized molecule originate from the coherent evolution of a superposition of quantum states composing a nonstationary wave packet. Conventional, synchrotron-based XUV sources can be used to infer electron hole dynamics [18,19], but this energy resolved approach cannot observe wave packet motion in real time. On the other hand, time-domain studies can elucidate the dynamic nature of correlations driving ultrafast charge dynamics in molecules and can open the door for the direct control of reaction pathways. Attosecond and femtosecond XUV pulses based on nonlinear high-harmonic generation (HHG) offer sufficiently broad bandwidths, forming an ideal tool for probing electronic superpositions in a wide variety of systems [5,6,11,12]. However, these techniques have not been applied in the pump-probe studies of coherent charge dynamics in polyatomic systems that exhibit complex behavior near conical intersections.A conical intersection arises when distinct electronic states become degenerate at a certain set of interatomic coordinates [20], leading to the breakdown of the conventional Born-Oppenheimer approximation that serves as the basis for the interpretation of many molecular phenomena. Near this point of degeneracy, the electronic and vibr...
