Abstract We investigate the momentum and energy correlations between the two electrons from nonsequential double ionization (NSDI) of helium by strong two-color pulses with the classical three-dimensional ensemble model. The correlated momentum distribution in the direction parallel to the laser field exhibits an arc-like structure and the sum-energy spectrum shows a sharp peak for the NSDI of helium in the two-color fields. Back analysis reveals that the narrow time interval during which recollisions occur, the low returning energy and the short time delay between recollision and double ionization lead to the novel momentum and energy correlations.
