Abstract
A molecular photo-double ionization cross section is derived by defini ng the molecule's transition dipole moment in a molecule-fixed frame i n analogy with helium double ionization. Transformed to the laboratory frame, the result helps explain the striking similarity of measured e lectron-pair angular distributions in D-2 and helium and a surprising enhancement in the molecular cross section observed where the atomic d istribution vanishes.
