Electron Correlation Effects in Attosecond Photoionization of CO$_{2}$

Optics 2020-09-02 v1 Atomic Physics Quantum Physics

Abstract

A technique for measuring photoionization time delays with attosecond precision is combined with calculations of photoionization matrix elements to demonstrate how multi-electron dynamics affect photoionization time delays in carbon dioxide. Electron correlation is observed to affect the time delays through two mechanisms: autoionization of molecular Rydberg states and accelerated escape from a continuum shape resonance.
