36. The asymptotic fraction of ionization is estimated by using absolute absorption cross-sections from the literature (Refs.) and absolute absorbance values (OD) for Xe and Xe measured in this work. Employing Beers law, the asymptotic ionization fraction is determined to be ∼14. The time-dependent ionization fraction is modeled by scaling the pump-probe trace of Xe ions at 55.4 eV such that its intensity at the maximum delay matches the asymptotic ionization fraction.
