Strong-Field Coulomb Explosion of Ethane, Propane, and Butane in Circularly Polarized Laser Fields

Yuxuan Hu, Roy Lau, Cody Covington +1

We investigate the Coulomb explosion of ethane (C${}_2$H${}_6$), propane (C${}_3$H${}_8$), and \textit{n}-butane (C${}_4$H${}_{10}$) driven by intense circularly polarized laser pulses using r…
