Clusters under strong VUV pulses: A quantum-classical hybrid-description incorporating plasma effects
arXiv:0705.3387 · doi:10.1103/PhysRevA.76.043203
Abstract
The quantum-classical hybrid-description of rare-gas clusters interacting with intense light pulses which we have developed is described in detail. Much emphasis is put on the treatment of screening electrons in the cluster which set the time scale for the evolution of the system and form the link between electrons strongly bound to ions and quasi-free plasma electrons in the cluster. As an example we discuss the dynamics of an Ar147 cluster exposed to a short VUV laser pulse of 20eV photon energy.
