    Under conditions of small hydrogen cluster size, where we expected angular-dependent time-of-flight (TOF) proton spectra consistent with isotropic coulomb explosions, we instead found strong explosion asymmetry with fast protons emitted preferentially in the direction of the laser polarization.
