Abstract
In order to improve the geometrical characterization of molecular ions using the Coulomb Explosion Imaging method, we discuss the need to include wake effects in a full description of the interactions felt by the swift dissociated atomic ions moving through thin foils. Comparison of simulations and experimental results for the structure of diatomic (HD+) and triatomic (CH2+) molecular ions is significantly improved when including the polarization effects induced in the target by the passage of swift ions.
