Electronic Currents and Magnetic Fields in H2+ Induced by Coherent Resonant Bichromatic Circularly Polarized Laser Pulses: Effects of Orientation, Phase, and Helicity

We theoretically study pulse phase and helicity effects on ultrafast magnetic field generation in intense bichromatic circularly polarized laser fields. Simulations are performed on the aligned molecular ion H2+ from numerical solutions of corresponding time-dependent Schrödinger equations. We demon...
