Intense ultrashort light pulses comprising merely a few wave cycles became routinely
available by the turn of the millennium. The technologies underlying their production and …

The rise time of intense radiation determines the maximum field strength atoms can be
exposed to before their polarizability dramatically drops due to the detachment of an outer …

During strong-field multiphoton ionization, a wave packet is formed each time the laser field
passes its maximum value. Within the first laser period after ionization there is a significant …

Recoil-ion and electron momentum spectroscopy is a rapidly develo** technique that
allows one to measure the vector momenta of several ions and electrons resulting from …

We present high sensitivity electron energy spectra for xenon in a strong 50 ps, 1.053 μm
laser field. The above threshold ionization distribution is smoothly decreasing over the entire …

Advances in attosecond science have led to a wealth of important discoveries in atomic,
molecular, and solid-state physics and are progressively directing their footsteps toward …

An electron generated by x-ray photoionization can be deflected by a strong laser field. Its
energy and angular distribution depends on the phase of the laser field at the time of …

The production of He+ and He 2+ by a 160 fs, 780 nm laser has been measured over an
unprecedented 12 orders of magnitude in counting range. Enhanced double electron …

Modern laser sources nowadays deliver ultrashort light pulses reaching few cycles in
duration and peak powers exceeding several terawatt (TW). When such pulses propagate …

We study the ionization of the H 2+ molecular ion in intense, short-pulse laser fields by
numerically solving the three-dimensional time-dependent Schrödinger equation as a …
