Multi-electron dynamics in atoms and molecules very often occur on sub- to few-femtosecond timescales. The available intensities of extreme-ultraviolet (XUV) attosecond pulses have previously only allowed the time-resolved investigation of…

Transfer-ionization in fast collisions between a bare ion and an atom, in which one of the atomic electrons is captured by the ion whereas another one is emitted, crucially depends on dynamic electron-electron correlations. We show that in…
