Multiphoton above threshold effects in strong-field fragmentation

Atomic Physics 2012-07-03 v1

Abstract

We present a study of multiphoton dissociative ionization from molecules. By solving the time-dependent Schr\"{o}dinger equation for H2+_2^+ and projecting the solution onto double continuum scattering states, we observe the correlated electron-nuclear ionization dynamics in detail. We show --- for the first time --- how multiphoton structure prevails as long as the energies of all fragments are accounted for. Our current work provides a new avenue to analyze strong-field fragmentation that leads to a deeper understanding of the correlated molecular dynamics.
