Quantum theory of isomeric excitation of Th in strong laser fields
Wu Wang, Xu Wang
A general quantum mechanical theory is developed for the isomeric excitation of Th in strong femtosecond laser pulses. The theory describes the tripartite interaction betwe…
Nuclear excitation cross section of Th via inelastic electron scattering
Hanxu Zhang, Wu Wang, Xu Wang
Nuclear excitation cross section of Th from the ground state to the low-lying isomeric state via inelastic electron scattering is calculated, on the level of Dirac distorte…
Nuclear fission in intense laser fields
Jintao Qi, Libin Fu, Xu Wang
Rapid-advancing intense laser technologies enable the possibility of a direct laser-nucleus coupling. In this paper the effect of intense laser fields on a series of nuclear fissio…
Alpha decay in intense laser fields: Calculations using realistic nuclear potentials
Jintao Qi, Tao Li, Ruihua Xu +2
We calculate the effect of intense laser fields on nuclear alpha decay processes, using realistic and quantitative nuclear potentials. We show that alpha decay rates can indeed be…
On the longitudinal momentum of the electron at the tunneling exit
Ruihua Xu, Tao Li, Xu Wang
The longitudinal momentum of the electron at the tunneling exit is a useful quantity to make sense of the tunneling ionization process. It was usually assumed to be zero from a cla…
Transition from non-sequential to sequential double ionisation in many-electron systems
Michael G. Pullen, Benjamin Wolter, Xu Wang +10
Obtaining a detailed understanding of strong-field double ionisation of many-electron systems (heavy atoms and molecules) remains a challenging task. By comparing experimental and…
Classical Theory of High Field Atomic Ionization Using Elliptical Polarization
Xu Wang, J. H. Eberly
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 ionize…
Multielectron Effects in Sequential Double Ionization with Elliptical Polarization
Xu Wang, J. H. Eberly
Multielectron double ionization with elliptically polarized light is examined theoretically using a classical ensemble method going beyond the single-active-electron approximation.…
Elliptical Polarization and Probability of Double Ionization
Xu Wang, J. H. Eberly
The degree of elliptical polarization of intense short laser pulses is shown to be related to the timing of strong-field non-sequential double ionization. Higher ellipticity is pre…
Elliptical Trajectories in Nonsequential Double Ionization
Xu Wang, J. H. Eberly
Using a classical ensemble method, nonsequential double ionization is predicted to exist with elliptical and circular polarization. Recollision is found to be the underlying mechan…
Effects of Elliptical Polarization on Strong-Field Short-Pulse Double Ionization
Xu Wang, J. H. Eberly
We predict new end-of-pulse behavior in high-field atomic double ionization. Calculations of atomic electron trajectories in short intense laser pulses confirm our analysis of elli…
Double Ionization by Strong Elliptically Polarized Laser Pulses
Xu Wang, J. H. Eberly
We join the tribute to Professor N.B. Delone in this memorial issue by presenting the results of new calculations on the effects of ellipticity on double ionization by short and st…
