Controlled redistribution of vibrational population by few-cycle strong-field laser pulses

W. A. Bryan, C. R. Calvert, R. B. King +3

The use of strong-field (i.e. intensities in excess of 10^13 Wcm-2) few-cycle ultrafast (durations of 10 femtoseconds or less) laser pulses to create, manipulate and image vibratio…

Atomic excitation during recollision-free ultrafast multi-electron tunnel ionization

W. A. Bryan, S. L. Stebbings, J. McKenna +12

Modern intense ultrafast pulsed lasers generate an electric field of sufficient strength to permit tunnel ionization of the valence electrons in atoms. This process is usually trea…

Quasi-classical model of dynamic molecular structure and non-destructive wavepacket manipulation by ultrashort laser pulses

W A Bryan, C R Calvert, R B King +4

A quasi-classical model (QCM) of molecular dynamics in intense femtosecond laser fields has been developed, and applied to a study of the effect of an ultrashort `control' pulse on…

Isolated vibrational wavepackets in D2+: Defining superposition conditions and wavepacket distinguishability

W. A. Bryan, J. McKenna, E. M. L. English +9

Tunnel ionization of room-temperature D in an ultrashort (12 femtosecond) near infra-red (800 nm) pump laser pulse excites a vibrational wavepacket in the D2+ ions; a rotationa…

Mapping the Evolution of Optically-Generated Rotational Wavepackets in a Room Temperature Ensemble of D

W. A. Bryan, E. M. L. English, J. McKenna +7

A coherent superposition of rotational states in D has been excited by nonresonant ultrafast (12 femtosecond) intense (2 10 Wcm) 800 nm laser pulses lead…

Observation of multiple ionization pathways for OCS in an intense laser field resolved by three-dimensional covariance mapping and visualized by hierarchical ionization topology

W. A. Bryan, W. R. Newell, J. H. Sanderson +1

The two- and three-body Coulomb explosion of carbonyl sulfide (OCS) by 790 nm, 50 fs laser pulses focussed to 10 Wcm has been investigated by three-dimensi…
