Electron-ion momentum spectroscopy is used to investigate the correlated electronic and nuclear motion in fragmentation of H2 in 4 x 10(14) W/cm(2), 25 fs laser pulses at 795 nm. Reaction channel dependent photoelectron spectra indicate that besides the main, stepwise H2 ionization H2(+) dissociation mechanism resulting in the products H(1s) + H(+) + e(-) a second new mechanism has to be assumed. The momentum distribution of H(+) ions in the dissociation channels H(1s) + H(+) + e(-) and 2H(+) + 2e(-) is found to be independent of the kinetic energy of the photoelectrons.
