The strong-field control of IBr photodissociation re-visited

Year: 2025

Type: article

Abstract: including the light-molecule interaction to all orders. The results reproduce the features of the experimental control, with a better fit to the time-scale than previous simulations. The mechanism by which the control operates is then found be a combination of excited-state excitation and modulation of the avoided crossing on the dissociation pathway.
