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 …

Early measurements demonstrated long ago the wealth of chemical information that can be
extracted from photofragmentation experiments in which a target system is dissociated or …

Measurements of the vacuum-ultraviolet (< 80-nm) radiation produced by intense ultraviolet
(248-nm) irradiation (10^ 15–10^ 16 W/cm^ 2) of rare gases have revealed the copious …

Publisher Summary This chapter discusses the molecular applications of quantum defect
theory. Quantum defect theory provides a unified description of discrete and continuous …

Absolute photoionization cross-sections for the rare gases have been measured from
threshold to 125 eV with an accuracy of±1 to 3% and are presented in both tabular and …

Br− ions undergo photodetachment in the presence of an electric field. As a result of the
photoexcitation process, the emitted electron's wave function extends to infinity, but inside a …

It is shown that increasing the opacity due to heavy elements by a factor of 2-3 leads to
classical Cepheid models which reproduce observed period ratios at evolutionary masses …

Here we present a fully ab initio study of the high-order harmonic generation (HHG)
spectrum of aligned CO2 molecules. The calculations have been performed by using the …

Using a spectrally resolved electron interferometry technique, we measure photoionization
time delays between the 3 s and 3 p subshells of argon over a large 34-eV energy range …

Publisher Summary This chapter discusses the spin polarization effects in atomic and
molecular photoelectrons. Photoelectron polarization measurements give qualitatively new …
