Abstract
We have investigated the correlated momentum distribution of both
electrons from nonsequential double ionization of helium in a 800
nm, 4.5x10(14) W/cm(2) laser field. Using very high resolution coincidence
techniques, we find a so-far unobserved fingerlike structure in the
correlated electron momentum distribution. The structure can be interpreted
as a signature of the microscopic dynamics in the recollision process.
We identify features corresponding to the binary and recoil lobe
in field-free (e,2e) collisions. This interpretation is supported
by analyzing ab initio solutions of a fully correlated three-dimensional
helium model.
