Photoionization as a half-scattering process is not instantaneous. Usually, time delays in photoionization are of the order of few tens of attoseconds (1 as = 10$^{-18}$ s). While going from a single atom to a nano-object, one can expect…

We study real-time photoionization flux at the $3s$ Amusia-Cooper minimum (ACM) in argon using \textit{ab initio} simulations with the relativistic time-dependent configuration-interaction singles (RTDCIS) method in length (LG) and velocity…

We present experimental data on the strong-field ionization of the argon dimer in a co-rotating two-color (CoRTC) laser field. We observe a sub-cycle interference pattern in the photoelectron momentum distribution and infer the Wigner time…

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…

Upon absorbing a photon, the ionized electron sails through the target force field in attoseconds to reach free space. This navigation probes details of the potential landscape that get imprinted into the phase of the ionization amplitude.…

Shape resonances in physics and chemistry arise from the spatial confinement of a particle by a potential barrier. In molecular photoionization, these barriers prevent the electron from escaping instantaneously, so that nuclei may move and…

We predict a significant delay of two-electron photoemission from the helium atom after absorption of an attosecond XUV pulse. We establish this delay by solving the time dependent Schr\"odinger equation and by subsequent tracing the…

We analyze the time delay between emission of photoelectrons from the outer valence $ns$ and $np$ sub-shells in noble gas atoms following absorption of an attosecond XUV pulse. By solving the time dependent Schr\"odinger equation and…
