Non-sequential double ionization with near-single cycle laser pulses
Abstract A three-dimensional semiclassical model is used to study double ionization of Ar when driven by a near-infrared and near-single-cycle laser pulse for intensities ranging from 0.85 × 1014 W/cm2 to 5 × 1014 W/cm2. Asymmetry parameters, distributions of the sum of the two electron momentum com...
