The background motivation, and some preliminary results, are reported for a recently begun investigation of a potentially important mechanism for electromagnetic radiation from space, Double Layer Radiation (DL-radiation). This type of…
How fast can a laser pulse ionize an atom? We address this question by considering pulses that carry a fixed time-integrated energy per-area, and finding those that achieve the double requirement of maximizing the ionization that they…
This is a sequel to an earlier article on the theory of angular correlation for double photoionization. Here we consider the two-step double photoionization of a rare gas atom under the influence of a polarized photon beam described by…
We demonstrate the ability to excite atoms at well-defined, programmable locations in a magneto-optical trap, either to the continuum (ionisation), or to a Rydberg state. To this end, excitation laser light is shaped into arbitrary…
The ionization energy of D$_2$ has been determined experimentally from measurements involving two-photon Doppler-free vacuum-ultraviolet pulsed laser excitation and near-infrared continuous-wave laser excitation to yield…
We introduce a novel in-situ strong field ionization tomography approach for characterizing the spatial density distribution of gas jets. We show that for typical intensities in high harmonic generation experiments, the strong field…
The dynamics of the electron impact multiphoton ionization of a hydrogen atom in the presence of an intense laser field has been studied theoretically, with a view to comparing (qualitatively) the results with the recent kinematically…
Triple-differential cross sections for two-photon double ionization of molecular hydrogen are presented for a central photon energy of 30 eV. The calculations are based on a fully {\it ab initio}, nonperturbative, approach to the…
We present a magnetically enhanced laser cooling scheme applicable to multi-level type-II transitions and further diatomic molecules with adiabatic transfer. An angled magnetic field is introduced to not only remix the dark states, but also…
We present measurements of the singly ionized helium to hydrogen ratio ($n_{He^+}/n_{H^+}$) toward diffuse gas surrounding three Ultra-Compact HII (UCHII ) regions: G10.15-0.34, G23.46-0.20 \& G29.96-0.02. We observe radio recombination…
The shape and absolute values of the generalized cross-sections of the two-photon resonant single ionization of the K-shell of ions of the isonuclear sequence of a heavy nickel atom (28Ni - Ni26+ - Ni24+ - Ni18+) have been theoretically…
Important information about strong-field atomic or molecular ionization can be missed when using linearly polarized laser fields. The field strength at which an electron was ionized, or the time during a pulse of the ionization event are…
We have shown that it is possible to model accurately optical phenomena in intense laser fields by taking into account the intensity distribution over the laser beam. We developed a theoretical model that divided an intense laser beam into…
In this paper we study the response in time of N$_2$, O$_2$ and F$_2$ to laser pulses having a wavelength of 390nm. We find single ionization suppression in O$_2$ and its absence in F$_2$, in accordance with experimental results at $\lambda…
We present a novel laser mode-locking scheme and discuss its unusual properties and feasibility using a theoretical model. A large set of single-frequency continuous-wave lasers oscillate by amplification in spatially separated gain media.…
A clear understanding of the mechanisms that control the electron dynamics in strong laser field is still a challenge that requires to be interpreted by advanced theory. Development of accurate theoretical and computational methods, able to…
We investigate dynamics of atomic and molecular systems exposed to intense, shaped chaotic fields and a weak femtosecond laser pulse theoretically. As a prototype example, the photoionization of a hydrogen atom is considered in detail. The…
Studies on out-of-equilibrium dynamics have paved a way to realize a new state of matter. Especially, superconductor-like properties above room temperatures recently suggested in copper oxides achieved by selectively exciting vibrational…
ABRIDGED: NGC5253 was previously studied by our group with the aim to elucidate in detail the starburst interaction processes. Some open issues regarding the 2D structure of the main properties of the ionized gas remain to be addressed.…
Component instantaneous ionization rate (IIR) is introduced and the approach of its calculation is formulated. The component IIR's and the overall (time-averaged) component ionization rates are calculated for H$_2^+$ at different values of…
