Probing multiphoton light-induced molecular potentials
Conical intersections, a hallmark of polyatomic molecules, can be induced with light, leading to new reaction pathways. Here, the authors show that intense fields can create complex, beyond-conical intersections even in diatomics, resulting in an unexpected angular distribution of fragment ions.
