Abstract
The vibrational wave packet dynamics of H2O+ and H2O are investigated by pump–probe measurements using few-cycle intense laser pulses. By a Fourier transform (FT) of the time-dependent yields of the two-body Coulomb explosion pathway, H2O2+ → H+ + OH+, and the parent ion, H2O+, the vibrational excitation processes in the electronic ground states of H2O+ and H2O induced by the intense laser field are retrieved from the phases of the respective vibrational peaks in the FT spectrum. Accurate quantum-dynamics simulations on H2O+ confirm both the peak assignment and the origin of the time-dependent ionization yields of the vibrational wave packet.
