Control of H2 dissociative ionization in the nonlinear regime using vacuum ultraviolet free-electron laser pulses

The role of the nuclear degrees of freedom in nonlinear two-photon single ionization of H2 molecules interacting with short and intense vacuum ultraviolet pulses is investigated, both experimentally and theoretically, by selecting single resonant vibronic intermediate neutral states. This high selec...
