Intense laser-matter interactions are at the center of interest in research and technology
since the development of high-power lasers. They have been widely used for fundamental …

Today laser pulses with electric fields comparable to or higher than the electrostatic forces
binding valence electrons in atoms and molecules have become a routine tool with …

The energy levels of atoms and molecules exposed to intense, short, high-frequency laser
pulses undergo time-dependent distortion known as dynamic Stark shift (DSS). These level …

Molecular dynamics simulations were performed to investigate the initial charging of a Li-ion
nanobattery with a graphite anode and lithium hexaflourphosphate (LiPF6) salt dissolved in …

Chirality causes symmetry breaks in a large variety of natural phenomena ranging from
particle physics to biochemistry. We investigate one of the simplest conceivable chiral …

We study the three-photon ionization of atomic lithium by intense, short light pulses, via
numerically solving the time-dependent Schrödinger equation. Two-photon Rabi oscillations …

We investigate few-photon ionization of lithium atoms prepared in the polarized 2 p (m ℓ=+
1) state when subjected to femtosecond light pulses with left-or right-handed circular …

Understanding strong-field ionization requires a quantitative comparison between
experimental data and theoretical models which is notoriously difficult to achieve. Optically …

Plasma dynamics critically depends on density and temperature, thus well-controlled
experimental realizations are essential benchmarks for theoretical models. The formation of …

We demonstrate how strong-field multiphoton transitions between dynamically shifted
atomic levels can be traced in the energy spectra of emitted photoelectrons. Applying an …
