The molecular fragmentation of doubly charged L-alanine in gas phase was studied in radiation synchrotron experiments. In this presentation, we summarize our theoretical study on the dynamics of this fragmentation, using various computational methods. We show that in practice the ground state MD simulations are able to statistically reproduce the experimental results of the photo-fragmentation initiated at the excited state.
