Short-in-time, broad-in-energy attosecond or few-femtosecond pulses can excite coherent superpositions of several electronic states in molecules. This results in ultrafast charge oscillations known as charge migration. A key open question…
When a strong laser pulse induces the ionization of an atom, momentum conservation dictates that the absorbed photons transfer their momentum $p_{\gamma}=E_{\gamma}/c$ to the electron and its parent ion. Even after 30 years of studying…
