We present experimental evidence of ultra-high energy density plasma states with the keV bulk electron temperatures and near-solid electron densities generated during the interaction of high contrast, relativistically intense laser pulses…
Picosecond geminate recombination kinetics for electrons generated by multiphoton ionization of liquid water become power dependent when the radiance of the excitation light is greater than 0.3-0.5 TW/cm^2 (the terawatt regime). To…
The static and dynamical properties of heavy water have been studied at ambient conditions with extensive Car-Parrinello molecular-dynamics simulations in the canonical ensemble, with temperatures ranging between 325 K and 400 K.…
Contemporary quantum plasmonics capture subtle corrections to the properties of plasmonic nano-objects in equilibrium. Here, we demonstrate nonequilibrium spill-out redistribution of the electronic density at the ultrafast time scale. As…
Materials in which heat and entropy can be transmitted by directed ballistic pulses can trigger new approaches to energy transduction in solids. We predict that a ballistic energy transfer mode, with heat propagation governed by a wave…
Microdischarges formed in bubbles immersed in liquids are of interest for materials synthesis and chemical conversion applications in the frame of plasma-driven electrochemistry. A key challenge associated with controlling such processes is…
The hydrodynamic behavior of electron fluids in a certain range of temperatures and densities is well established in graphene and in 2D semiconductor heterostructures. The hydrodynamic regime is intrinsically based on electron-electron…
Collective modes in Fermi liquids are usually regarded as dissipation channels that relax electronic excitations through Landau damping. Whether such modes can instead mediate the formation of correlated electronic states under…
Using time- and angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy, we study the response of metallic single layer TaS$_2$ in the 1H structural modification to the generation of excited carriers by a femtosecond laser pulse. A complex interplay of…
The behavior of liquid water under an electric field is a crucial phenomenon in science and engineering. However, its detailed description at a microscopic level is difficult to achieve experimentally. Here we report on the first ab initio…
Exciting electrons in solids with intense light pulses offers the possibility of generating new states of matter through nonthermal means and controlling their macroscopic properties on femto- to picosecond timescales. One way to manipulate…
The possibility of studying non-thermal electron energization in laser-driven plasma experiments of magnetic reconnection is studied using two- and three-dimensional particle-in-cell simulations. It is demonstrated that non-thermal…
Ultrafast relaxation dynamics of an athermal electron distribution is investigated in silver films using a femtosecond pump-probe technique with 18 fs pulses in off-resonant conditions. The results yield evidence for an increase with time…
We propose a kinetic model of transient nonequilibrium phenomena in metals exposed to ultrashort laser pulses when heated electrons affect the lattice through direct electron-phonon interaction. This model describes the destruction of a…
Photo-doping of Mott insulators or correlated metals can create an unusual metallic state which simultaneously hosts hole-like and electron-like particles. We study the dynamics of this state up to long times, as it passes its kinetic…
Plasma dynamics critically depends on density and temperature, thus well-controlled experimental realizations are essential benchmarks for theoretical models. The formation of an ultracold plasma can be triggered by ionizing a tunable…
The very-low temperature thermal effective mass m* of paramagnetic and ferromagnetic electrons in a uniform electron fluid in two dimensions is studied. Analytical and numerical evaluations are used to meaningfully define an m*, even in the…
Over the last decade, an increasing body of evidence has emerged, supporting the existence of a metastable liquid-liquid critical point in supercooled water, whereby two distinct liquid phases of different densities coexist. Analysing long…
Understanding the interaction between metal ions and their aqueous environment is fundamental in many areas of chemistry, biology, and environmental science. In this study, we investigate the electronic structure of hydrated calcium ions,…
We investigate the influence of hydrogen on the electronic structure of a binary transition metallic glass of V$_{80}$Zr$_{20}$. We examine the hybridization between the hydrogen and metal atoms with the aid of hard x-ray photoelectron…
