Ultrafast processes in matter, such as the electron emission following light absorption, can now be studied using ultrashort light pulses of attosecond duration ($10^{-18}$s) in the extreme ultraviolet spectral range. The lack of spectral…
No, we cannot! The concept of Wigner time delay was introduced in scattering theory to quantify the delay or advance of an incoming particle in its interaction with the scattering potential. It was assumed that this concept can be…
