Abstract

We use ultrafast laser pulse shaping to discriminate between different pathways to multiple continua in strong-field molecular ionization. Shaping the laser pulse which ionizes the molecule allows us to control the photoelectron spectrum, which we interpret using a recently developed model of resonantly enhanced multiphoton ionization. Our measurements and calculations allow us to distinguish between a single intermediate resonance leading to multiple continua and multiple intermediate resonances each leading to a separate continuum.
