abstract = {Tracing the modifications of molecules in surface chemical
reactions benefits from the possibility to image their
orbitals. While delocalized frontier orbitals with
π-character are imaged routinely with photoemission orbital
tomography, they are not always sensitive to local chemical
modifications, particularly the making and breaking of bonds
at the molecular periphery. For such bonds, σ-orbitals
would be far more revealing. Here, we show that these
orbitals can indeed be imaged in a remarkably broad energy
range, and that the plane wave approximation, an important
ingredient of photoemission orbital tomography, is also well
fulfilled for these orbitals. This makes photoemission
orbital tomography a unique tool for the detailed analysis
of surface chemical reactions. We demonstrate this by
identifying the reaction product of a dehalogenation and
cyclodehydrogenation reaction.},
