Abstract

A study was conducted on the dynamics of a model H₂ molecule driven by strong laser fields without adopting the Born-Oppenheimer approximation. It was found that for constant intensity the decay of the molecule can be described by a single decay rate. The results indicate that single ionization at short internuclear distances was the main route of decay. Hence, double ionization of H₂ at small internuclear distances was said to be responsible for high-energy protons based on the observations in the Coulomb-explosion experiments.
