Abstract :
Two-body Coulomb explosion processes of methanol (CH3OH) in an intense laser field (0.2 PW/cm2, 60 fs) are investigated by the coincidence momentum imaging method. In the coincidence momentum images, the hydrogen ejection processes, CH 3 OH 2 + → H m + + CH ( 3 - m ) OH + ( m = 1 – 3 ) , are securely identified. From the anisotropy in the angular distributions of the fragment ions, the lifetimes of the corresponding precursor ions CH3OH2+ are estimated to be 70–290 fs for the H+ ejection, 110–550 fs for the H 2 + ejection, and much longer than 1.4 ps for the H 3 + ejection.
