Intensity-dependent study of strong-field Coulomb explosion of H2
Abstract:
We demonstrate experimentally that in pump-probe experiment of H2 fragmentation by intense laser fields, the Coulomb explosion (CE) paths induced by the second ionization of dissociating H2+ show varied dependencies on the laser intensity. While the charge resonance enhanced ionization (CREI) channel is intensity dependent, the probe induced CE (PICE) channel is intensity independent at certain delay time. By using a classical model, we calculated the dissociation trajectories which agree well with the experimental data.
