Abstract

Effects of the laser pulse wavelength and intensity on the HHG production from the \textit{ionic} and \textit{homolytic} pre-ionization transient states of the two-electron H2_{2} system exposed to ultrashort intense laser pulses are studied by solving time-dependent Schr\"{o}dinger equation. It is found that for the populated homolytic species in each half cycle of the laser pulse having enough strength, a pair of strong and weak HHG radiations are produced simultaneously. For the populated ionic species divided into two regions, in each half cycle, one of the ionic regions has a strong radiation and the other ionic region has a weak HHG radiation. The HHG spectra of the homolytic and ionic species are almost similar, except that in some limited parts of the HHG spectrum, one of them dominate the other.
