Recent advances in the study of quantum vibrations and rotations in the fundamental
hydrogen molecules are reported. Using the deuterium molecules (D2+ and D2) as …

Laser pulses with a waveform-controlled electric field and broken inversion symmetry
establish the opportunity to achieve directional control of molecular processes on a …

Filming atomic motion within molecules is an active pursuit of molecular physics and
quantum chemistry. A promising method is laser-induced Coulomb Explosion Imaging (CEI) …

It was recently shown that the exact factorization of the electron-nuclear wave function
allows the construction of a Schrödinger equation for the electronic system, in which the …

Dissociation of diatomic molecules with odd number of electrons always causes the
unpaired electron to localize on one of the two resulting atomic fragments. In the simplest …

In a joint experimental and theoretical endeavor, we explore the laser-induced dissociation
and ionization dynamics of H 2+ beams using sub-10-fs, 800 nm laser pulses. Our theory …

Laser-induced rotational wave packets of H 2 and D 2 molecules were experimentally
measured in real time by using two sequential 25-fs laser pulses and a reaction microscope …

We investigate the two-and three-body fragmentation of tribromomethane (bromoform,
CHBr3) resulting from multiple ionization by 28-femtosecond near-infrared laser pulses with …

When a diatomic molecule is ionized by an intense laser field, the ionization rate depends
very strongly on the inter-nuclear separation. That dependence exhibits a pronounced …

We present a systematic study of the molecular-frame photo-electron angular distributions
produced by multiphoton double ionization of H 2 using circularly polarized 800 nm …
