Strong-field induced multi-body fragmentation of formic acid

ORAL

Abstract

We study the strong-field induced ionization and multi-body fragmentation of formic acid (HCOOH) and its isotopologue (HCOOD) using coincident three-dimensional momentum imaging. In particular, we implement the native frames method [1] to elucidate the multi-body sequential fragmentation dynamics of formic acid as well as study several bond rearrangement processes. \newline [1] J.
