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 …

This paper has been prepared by the Symphony collaboration (University of Warsaw,
Uniwersytet Jagielloński, DESY/CNR and ICFO) on the occasion of the 25th anniversary of …

Acceleration and collision of particles has been a key strategy for exploring the texture of
matter. Strong light waves can control and recollide electronic wavepackets, generating high …

Recently two emerging areas of research, attosecond and nanoscale physics, have started
to come together. Attosecond physics deals with phenomena occurring when ultrashort laser …

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 emerging application of attosecond techniques to molecular systems allows the role of
electronic coherence in the control of chemical reactions to be investigated. Prompt …

The advent of ultraintense laser pulses generated by the technique of chirped pulse
amplification (CPA) along with the development of high-fluence laser materials has opened …

The ultrafast motion of electrons and holes after light-matter interaction is fundamental to a
broad range of chemical and biophysical processes. We advanced high-harmonic …

Experimental advances with laser intensities above 1 TW/cm 2, with pulse durations
between roughly 50 and 5 fs, have led to the discovery of new atomic effects that include …

The tunnelling of a particle through a barrier is one of the most fundamental and ubiquitous
quantum processes. When induced by an intense laser field, electron tunnelling from atoms …
