Ionization of Xe in intense, two-cycle laser fields: Dependence on carrier-envelope phase

Parinda Vasa, Aditya K. Dharmadhikari, Jayashree A. Dharmadhikari +1

We report on tunnel ionization of Xe by 2-cycle, intense, infrared laser pulses and its dependence on carrier-envelope-phase (CEP). At low values of optical field (), the ioniza…

Possible EIT-like effects in strong-field photodissociation of carbon disulphide

F. A. Rajgara, D. Mathur, Hema Ramachandran

CS molecules are spatially aligned upon irradiation by intense (1-100 TW cm), 35 ps pulses of 512 nm or 355 nm light. When both colours are simultaneously present, spati…

Strong light fields coax intramolecular reactions on femtosecond time scales

M. Krishnamurthy, F. A. Rajgara, D. Mathur

Energetic H ions are formed as a result of intra-molecular rearrangement during fragmentation of linear alcohols (methanol, ethanol, propanol, hexanol, and dodecanol) induced…

Electron rescattering and the fragmentation dynamics of molecules in strong optical fields

F A Rajgara, M Krishnamurthy, D Mathur

We have probed the fragmentation dynamics in a bent triatomic molecule, water, a non-planar molecule, methanol, and a planar ring-structured molecule, benzene, using 100 fs duratio…

Dynamic and geometric alignment of CS_2 in intense laser fields of picosecond and femtosecond duration

S. Banerjee, G. R. Kumar, D. Mathur

CS is identified as a molecule for which distinction can be made between dynamic and geometric alignment induced by intense laser fields. Measured anisotropic angular distribut…

Electron attachment to valence-excited CO

Sanjay Kumar, D. Mathur

The possibility of electron attachment to the valence state of CO is examined using an {\it ab initio} bound-state multireference configuration interaction approach. The re…
