Coulomb Explosion Imaging of Molecular Dynamics in Intense Laser Fields

  • Chapter
Progress in Ultrafast Intense Laser Science II

Part of the book series: Springer Series in Chemical Physics ((PUILS,volume 85))

Summary

The nuclear dynamics of polyatomic molecules in intense laser fields (∼1 PW/cm2) is studied through the momentum imaging of the fragment ions produced through Coulomb explosion. Characteristic nuclear dynamics that occur on the multidimensional potential energy surfaces in intense laser fields, such as sequential and concerted bond-breaking and hydrogen migration, are elucidated from momentum correlations among the fragment ions.
