heal.abstractThe nonlinear interaction of molecular matter with the intense field of a linearly-polarized laser beam, allows the study of not only the ionization dynamics of the parent molecule, but also the angular distribution of the exploding fragments. This is carried out by rotating the polarization vector of the laser with respect to the laboratory reference frame. The angular distributions for the CS2, CO2, N2O, H2S, and CH3I molecular ions, at intensities of about 10(16) W cm(-2), are presented. The distributions seem to be dependent on the molecule under consideration, but common features are that the peripheral atoms of the molecule are ejected along the ToF-axis, and the central atom perpendicularly to it, whenever the polarization vector and ToF-axis are collinear. It would seem that the distributions for the lighter of the molecules are partly due to alignment via dipole moments induced by the laser, as the distributions narrow as their charge-state increases. This is indicative of a larger torque acting on the higher-charged precursor molecular ion, via the interaction of the field with the laser-induced dipole moment. On the other hand, the angular dependence of the heavier molecules studied, are thought to originate from a dependence of the ionization/dissociation probability of the molecular ion on the initial angle made between the molecular axis and the polarization vector, that is, a preferential ionization/dissociation process. Spatial alignment in the laser pulse, in this case, is not thought to occur since the peaks do not narrow as the ionic charge increases. Finally, the results for H2S and also N2O are particularly interesting, since distributions for up to S7+ are presented, while the N-distributions show both a parallel and perpendicular component of the distribution. Neither of these results has, to the author's knowledge, been previously observed.en
