Abstract
We report the observation of two-pathway coherent control in a bound-f ree transition for the molecular system, NO. This control is manifeste d as a modulation of the photoelectron angular distribution produced b y coherent one- and two-photon ionization. Photopreparation of an init ial state and use of an intermediate-state resonance in the two-photon arm of the interfering interaction helps to reduce the number of poss ible photoionization channels.
