Multiple ionization of large clusters when they are irradiated by an intense ultrashort laser pulse is investigated. Different mechanisms, responsible for cluster ionization, are investigated. It is found that the ionization of large clusters, irradiated by a strong intense ultrashort laser pulse, is realized by means of the surface thermoemission.

The structure of large clusters such as neutral clusters, metallic clusters, and clusters ion is investigated. Furthermore, the electron distribution of large clusters when they are irradiated by an intense ultrashort laser pulse is treated. The cluster excitation results from the interaction of the electron subsystem with the laser field. Analyzing the quantum metallic cluster proves that its properties differ essentially from the properties of a classical small metallic sphere. The eigen frequency of the surface oscillation of a cluster is obtained and it is shown that it is lower than Mie frequency because of Thomas–Fermi screening.

AbstractWhen an atom or molecule is exposed to a strong laser field, an electron can tunnel out from the parent ion and moves along a specific trajectory. This ultrafast electron motion is sensitive to a variation of the laser field. Thus, it can be used as a fast temporal gate for the temporal characterization of the laser field. Here, we demonstrate a new type of attosecond streaking wherein a rescattered electron trajectory is manipulated by an ultrashort laser pulse. The vector potential of the laser pulse is directly recorded in the photoelectron spectra of the rescattered electron. In contrast to high harmonic generation methods, our approach has no directional ambiguity in space, leading to complete in situ temporal characterization. In addition, it provides timing information on ionization and re-scattering events. Therefore, our approach can be a useful tool for the investigation of strong-field processes triggered by rescattering, such as non-sequential double ionization and laser-induced electron diffraction.

AbstractWe study the Mott scattering of charged spinless particles in the presence of an intense plane wave laser pulse with fixed propagation direction and arbitrary duration and shape. We derive two equivalent forms of the transition amplitude and we discuss the relation between the respective results obtained in the case of a laser pulse and the monochromatic case. We obtain the condition defining the boundaries of the “bright” domain (the domain of allowed values in the energy-direction space of the scattered particle) and we illustrate our results with numerical examples.
