Visualizing the real-time dissociation of chemical bonds represents a challenge in the study of ultrafast molecular dynamics due to the simultaneous need for sub-angstrom spatial and femtosecond temporal resolution. Here, we follow the C-I dissociation dynamics of strong-field-ionized 2-iodopropane...
