Double Ionization of Driven Diatomic Molecules

该奖项由2009年美国复苏和再投资法案(公共法律111-5)资助。有效的数值方法虽然是经典的，但却是为原子开发的，用于描述不能用量子方法处理的多电子系统，将扩展到分子。在这里，不同的电子和核时间尺度增加了另一个层次的复杂性。这项研究将探索这些更大系统中的阿秒动力学，为研究强场中的电子动力学提供一个新的视角。因此，这项工作将为阿托秒科学的发展贡献新的知识，阿托秒科学是超快激光科学应用的新方向，应用于生物、化学、物理、等离子体科学和核物理。

AbstractThis award is funded under the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 (Public Law 111-5).Efficient numerical methods, albeit classical, which were developed for atoms, to describe multi-electron systems which can not be treated by quantum methods, will be extended to molecules. Here the different electron and nuclear timescales add another level of complexity. This study will probe attosecond dynamics in these larger systems, offering a new perspective on the dynamics of electrons in intense fields. Hence this work will contribute new knowledge for the development of Attosecond Science, a new direction in applications of ultrafast laser science, with applications to biology, chemistry, physics, plasma science, and nuclear physics.
