Abstract

Ultrafast hydrogen migration in deuterated acetylene dication (C\({}_{2}{\mathrm{D}}_{2}^{2+}\)) is studied by time-resolved four-body Coulomb explosion imaging, C2D\({}_{2}^{4+}\, \rightarrow \,\,{\mathrm{D}}^{+} +{ \mathrm{C}}^{+} +{ \mathrm{C}}^{+} +{ \mathrm{D}}^{+}\), using a pair of few-cycle intense laser pulses (9 fs, 1. 3 ×1014 W/cm2). Momentum correlation of the D + ions produced by the full fragmentation process shows that (1) motions of the two deuterium atoms are strongly correlated during the isomerization and (2) the molecular structure deforms to non-planar geometries.
