Coherent electron emission for dissociative ionization of molecular hydrogen by electron impact

The single ionization of hydrogen molecules is studied theoretically as a function of the molecular alignment. Within the framework of the two-effective center model, multiple differential cross sections as a function of both electron momenta in the final channel of the reaction, and the internuclear orientation, are computed for both non-dissociative and dissociative final H⁺₂ states. Preliminary results show that the interference pattern arising from the two-center character of the molecular target changes strongly with the final state of the residual molecular ion.
