A controversy surrounding the "tunnelling time problem" stems from the seeming inability of quantum mechanics to provide, in the usual way, a definition of the duration a particle is supposed to spend in a given region of space. For this…
Attosecond angular streaking, also known as the "attoclock", employs a short elliptically polarized laser pulse to tunnel ionize an electron from an atom or a molecule and to put a time stamp on this process by deflecting the photoelectron…
A clear consensus on how long it takes a particle to tunnel through a potential barrier has never been so urgently required, since the electron dynamics in strong-field ionization can be resolved on attosecond time-scale in experiment and…
Tunneling plays a central role in the interaction of matter with intense laser pulses, and also in time-resolved measurements on the attosecond timescale. A strong laser field influences the binding potential of an electron in an atom so…

Tunneling time, time needed for a quantum particle to tunnel through a potential energy barrier, can be measured by a duration marker. One such marker is spin reorientation due to Larmor precession. With a weak magnetic field in $z$…
