Abstract
The ejection anisotropy of Coulomb explosion fragments released from alkyl halide molecules (C 2H 5X, 1-C 3H 7X and 1-C 4H 9X, where X = Br, Cl) under strong 35 ps laser irradiation is studied by means of time-of-flight mass spectrometry. By comparing the angular distributions widths of the halogen fragment ions originating from multiply charged molecular ions it is concluded that the ejection anisotropy presents a weak dependence on the mass of the halogen atom, observed especially in the case of ethyl halide molecules, while a stronger dependence is found on the size of the alkyl chain.
