This tutorial presents an introduction to the interaction of light and matter on the attosecond timescale. Our aim is to detail the theoretical description of ultra-short time-delays, and to relate these to the phase of extreme ultraviolet…
Time-delays in the photoionization of molecules are investigated. As compared to atomic ionization, the time-delays expected from molecular ionization present a much richer phenomenon, with a strong spatial dependence due to the anisotropic…
We investigate theoretically the relative time delay of photoelectrons originating from the different subshells (2s and 2p) of neon. This quantity was measured via attosecond streaking and studied theoretically by Schultze et al. [Science…
We present measurements of single-photon ionization time delays between valence electrons of argon and neon using a coincidence detection technique that allows for the simultaneous measurement of both species under identical conditions.…
Shape resonances in photoionization of atoms and molecules arise from a particular geometry of the ionic potential which traps the receding photoelectron in a quasi-bound state in a particular partial wave. This mechanism allows us to…
The narrowing of electron and ion wave packets in the process of photoionization is investigated, with the electron-ion recoil fully taken into account. Packet localization of this type is directly related to entanglement in the joint…
We study the role of electron-electron correlation in the ground-state of Ne, as well as in photoionization dynamics induced by an attosecond XUV pulse. For a selection of central photon energies around 100 eV, we find that while the…
In time-resolved photoemission experiments, more than one electron can be emitted from the solid by a single ultra-short pulse. We theoretically demonstrate how correlations between the momenta of outgoing electrons relate to time-dependent…
Chiral light-matter interactions have been investigated for two centuries, leading to the discovery of many chiroptical processes used for discrimination of enantiomers. Whereas most chiroptical effects result from a response of bound…
Photoionisation is a process where absorption of one or several photons liberates an electron and creates a hole in a quantum system, such as an atom or a molecule. Is it faster to remove an electron using one or many photons, and how to…
More than 100 years after its discovery and its explanation in the energy domain, the duration of the photoelectric effect is still heavily studied. The emission time of a photoelectron can be quantified by the Wigner time delay.…
We investigate attosecond time delays in the emission of photoelectrons using a hierarchy of models of the $CO_2$ molecule including the strong field approximation, Coulomb-scattering, short-range parts of the molecular potential, Hartree…
We study laser-assisted photodetachment time delays by attosecond pulse trains from the closed-shell negative ions F- and Cl-. We investigate the separability of the delay into two contributions: (i) the Wigner-like delay associated with…
In this paper we have tried to establish a theory for angular correlation between the photo- and Auger electrons in the two-step double photoionization of a rare gas atom. The basic finding of this paper is that a general theoretical…
