The study of photoelectron circular dichroism (PECD) per se offers unique insights into fundamental molecular photoionization dynamics spanning the full range of physical conditions. Equally, PECD has unique capabilities as a technique for studying structure, interactions, and by extension chemical and biological properties in chiral molecular systems. Due to homochirality these are topics of...

We theoretically study the electron dynamics of \pi_\pm orbitals of nitric oxide (NO) driven by strong elliptically polarized (EP) laser pulses. Our theoretical analysis shows that the interactions of \pi_+ and \pi_- orbitals with strong EP pulses will lead to the tilted polarization of the orbital with respect to the major axis of the EP field. As a result, the most probable ionization times...

The interaction of spatially tailored laser pulses (such as photonic vortices) with matter is receiving an increasing attention recently. This is mainly due to the possibility of imparting to matter a well defined amount of orbital angular momenta (OAM) which is associated with winding number of the optical vortex [1]. This renders possible non-dipolar transitions or transitions with well...
