Exploring Valence Electron Dynamics of Xenon through Laser-Induced Electron Diffraction
arxiv(2024)
Abstract
Strong-field ionization can induce electron motion in both the continuum and
the valence shell of the parent ion. Here, we explore their interplay by
studying laser-induced electron diffraction (LIED) patterns arising from
interaction with the potentials of two-hole states of the xenon cation. The
quantitative rescattering theory is used to calculate the corresponding
photoelectron momentum distributions, providing evidence that the spin-orbit
dynamics could be detected by LIED. We identify the contribution of these
time-evolving hole states to the angular distribution of the rescattered
electrons, particularly noting a distinct change along the backward scattering
angles. We benchmark numerical results with experiments using ultrabroad and
femtosecond laser pulses centered at 3100nm.
