متن کاملRecollision dynamics and time delay in strong-field double ionization.
Three-dimensional classical ensembles are employed to study recollision dynamics in double ionization of atoms by 780-nm intense lasers. After recollision one electron typically remains bound to the atom for a portion of a laser cycle, during which time the nucleus strongly influences its direction of motion. The electron then escapes over a suppressed barrier, with its final momentum depending...
متن کاملNonsequential double ionization of the hydrogen molecule: Dependence on molecular alignment
We present and analyze results of ab initio computations of nonsequential double ionization of the hydrogen molecule in a few-cycle intense laser pulse. To this end, we have used a model of planar molecules with static nuclei, in which the electronic center-of-mass motion is restricted along the polarization direction of the linearly polarized laser. Alignment of the internuclear axis parallel ...
متن کاملMechanism of delayed double ionization in a strong laser field.
When intense laser pulses release electrons nonsequentially, the time delay between the last recollision and the subsequent ionization may last longer than what is expected from a direct impact scenario [recollision excitation with subsequent ionization (RESI)]. We show that the resulting delayed ionization stems from the inner electron being promoted to a sticky region. We identify the mechani...
متن کاملStrong field double ionization: What is under the ''knee''?
Both uncorrelated (“sequential”) and correlated (“nonsequential”) processes contribute to the double ionization of the helium atom in strong laser pulses. The double ionization probability has a characteristic “knee” shape as a function of the intensity of the pulse. We investigate the phase-space dynamics of this system, specifically by finding the dynamical structures that regulate the ioniza...
