contents We study the ultrafast dynamics initiated by a coherent superposition of core-excited states of nitrous oxide molecule. Using high-level \textit{ab-initio} methods, we show that the decoherence caused by the electronic decay and the nuclear dynamics is substantially slower than the induced ultrafast quantum beatings, allowing the system to undergo several oscillations before it dephases. We propose a proof-of-concept experiment using the harmonic up-conversion scheme available at X-ray free-electron laser facilities to trace the evolution of the created core-excited-state coherence through a time-resolved X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy.
