Coherent control multiphoton ionization

S. Park, S.-P. Lu, R. Gordon, Coherent laser control of the resonance-enhanced multiphoton ionization of HCl, J. Chem. Phys. 94 (1991) 8622. 

The goal of this book is to present in a coherent way the problems of the laser control of matter at the atomic-molecular level, namely, control of the velocity distribution of atoms and molecules (saturation Doppler-free spectroscopy) control of the absolute velocity of atoms (laser cooling) control of the orientation, position, and direction of motion of atoms (laser trapping of atoms, and atom optics) control of the coherent behavior of ultracold (quantum) gases laser-induced photoassociation of cold atoms, photoselective ionization of atoms photoselective multiphoton dissociation of simple and polyatomic molecules (vibrationally or electronically excited) multiphoton photoionization and mass spectrometry of molecules and femtosecond coherent control of the photoionization of atoms and photodissociation of molecules.
