Abstract
We have measured spatially dependent multiple ionization of xenon in an intense ultrashort pulse laser field. The ion yields for various charge states are dramatically different due to selecting specific locations within a Gaussian laser focus. The data show a clear enhancement of higher charge states and the double ion exceeds the single ion yield at certain locations. A model based on space-dependent volume scaling for different charge states is presented.Keywords
