It is generally believed that the recollision mechanism of atomic nonsequential double ionization is suppressed in circularly polarized laser fields because the returning electron is unlikely to encounter the core. On the contrary, we find…
We show through simulation that quantum interference in non-sequential double ionization can be used to control the recollision with subsequent ionization (RESI) mechanism. This includes the shape, localization and symmetry of RESI…
We calculate the photoionization cross-section of a molecular endohedral. We limit ourselves to two-atomic molecules. The consideration is much more complex than for atomic endohedrals because the system even for almost spherical fullerenes…
