- We demonstrate that the possibility of monitoring relative photoionization cross sections over a large photon energy range allows us to study and disentangle shake processes and intramolecular inelastic scattering effects. In this gas-phase study, relative intensities of the carbon 1s photoelectron lines from chemically inequivalent carbon atoms in the same molecule have been measured as a function of the incident photon energy in the range of 300-6000 eV. We present relative cross sections for the chemically shifted carbon 1s lines in the photoelectron spectra of ethyl trifluoroacetate (the "ESCA" molecule). The results are compared with those of methyl trifluoroacetate and S-ethyl trifluorothioacetate as well as a series of chloro-substituted ethanes and 2-butyne. In the soft X-ray energy range, the cross sections show an extended X-ray absorption fine structure type of wiggles, as was previously observed for a series of chloroethanes. The oscillations are damped in the hard X-ray energy range, but deviations of cross-section ratios from stoichiometry persist, even at high energies. The current findings are supported by theoretical calculations based on a multiple scattering model. The use of soft and tender X-rays provides a more complete picture of the dominant processes accompanying photoionization. Such processes reduce the main photoelectron line intensities by 20-60%. Using both energy ranges enabled us to discern the process of intramolecular inelastic scattering of the outgoing electron, whose significance is otherwise difficult to assess for isolated molecules. This effect relates to the notion of the inelastic mean free path commonly used in photoemission studies of clusters and condensed matter.

- The C is photoelectron spectrum of ethyl trifluoroacetate (CF3-CO-O-CH2-CH3), also known as the 'ESCA molecule', is the most illustrative showcase of chemical shifts in photoelectron spectroscopy. The binding energies of the four carbon atoms of this molecule spread over more than 8 eV with energy separations ranging from 1.7 to 3.1 eV owing to different chemical environments and hence different charge states of these atoms. The paper discusses history and importance of this spectrum in the field of photoelectron spectroscopy starting from the time of invention of the ESCA technique. The main focus of the paper is a 'revisit' of this spectrum using the most modern experimental and computational tools. Large geometrical changes, different for each ionization site, and the presence of two conformers of ethyl trifluoroacetate influence the spectral lineshapes of all four C 1s lines. These effects are carefully modeled by theory and investigated in the experimental spectrum.
