Abstract
We investigate intense, ultrafast laser-induced isomerization and two-body fragmentation of acetylene monocations and dications using coincidence three-dimensional momentum imaging. Whereas the vast majority of previous work on strong-field isomerization and fragmentation of acetylene has necessarily involved ionization, by focusing solely on dissociation of ion-beam targets, we ensure that the dynamics ensue within a single molecular ion species, potentially simplifying interpretation. We demonstrate the rich information that can be extracted from such a measurement and discuss advantages and disadvantages of this approach.
