Popis: We report fully differential photoelectron spectra from an ab initio coupled-channels treatment of ${\mathrm{CO}}_{2}$. Photoionization by laser pulses centered at wavelengths of 400 and 800 nm is considered, with arbitrary molecular alignment and polarization (linear and elliptic). Calculations reveal significant excited-state channel contributions that are, at certain molecular orientations, an order of magnitude larger than the ground-state channel in the rescattering plateau. A partial washout of the multiphoton structure in the above threshold ionization spectra and of the nodal features in angle-resolved spectra is observed due to ionization to excited-state channels. The qualitative nature of the spectra is determined by ionization thresholds, orbital symmetries, and interchannel coupling, in order of precedence.
