The role of phase in molecular Rydberg wave packet dynamics
The dynamics of Rydberg electron wave packets in a molecular system was investigated. Peaks in the autocorrelation function of a wave packet composed predominantly of two interleaved Rydberg series were observed at a stroboscopic period, which depends on both the difference in the ionization limits...

| description | The dynamics of Rydberg electron wave packets in a molecular system was investigated. Peaks in the autocorrelation function of a wave packet composed predominantly of two interleaved Rydberg series were observed at a stroboscopic period, which depends on both the difference in the ionization limits of the two series, and on the quantum defects. This observation was rationalized by viewing the system as one in which two electron wave packets evolve independently until they overlap spatially. |
