The goal of the present article is to review the major developments that have led to the
current understanding of molecule–field interactions and experimental methods for …

Previous investigations have shown that the instantaneous eigenstates of a molecule
interacting via its polarizability with a strong electric field of a nonresonant laser pulse are …

We examine the time evolution of states created by the nonadiabatic interaction of a polar
molecule with combined electrostatic and pulsed nonresonant laser fields and show that the …

A tutorial for calculating the response of molecules to electric and magnetic fields with
examples from research in ultracold physics, controlled chemistry, and molecular collisions …

The mass spectra for both horizontal and vertical polarizations and the angular distributions
of fragment ions arising from Coulomb explosion of tetrahedral methyl iodide (CH 3 I) ions …

CS 2 is identified as a molecule for which distinction can be made between dynamic and
geometric alignment induced by intense laser fields. Measured anisotropic angular …

H atoms in H 2 O are rearranged by strong optical fields generated by intense 9.3 fs laser
pulses to form H 2+⁠. This atomic rearrangement is ultrafast: It occurs within a single laser …

Mass spectrometry experiments have been performed to probe the morphology of
dissociative ionization of a ring molecule benzene when it is immersed in a laser field of 35 …

The dynamic process of laser-induced alignment in Coulomb explosion of N 2 has been
studied using linearly and circularly polarized, 800 nm, 40 fs Ti: sapphire laser pulses at …

The nonlinear interaction of the triatomic molecules CS 2 and CO 2 with the intense field of a
linearly polarized laser beam of femtosecond (fs) pulse duration, was used to study the …
