Recently demonstrated isolated attosecond XFEL pulses should allow the probing of ultrafast electron dynamics at X-ray wavelengths. The authors use ghost imaging to enable high-resolution transient absorption spectroscopy at fluctuating XFEL sources.

Using femtosecond time-resolved extreme ultraviolet absorption spectroscopy, the dissociation dynamics of the haloalkane 1,2-dibromoethane (DBE) have been explored following strong field ionization by femtosecond near infrared pulses at intensities between 7.5 × 1013 and 2.2 × 1014 W cm−2.

Here we report on the ultrafast electron dynamics of the alkalis Na, K, and Cs coadsorbed with D2O on Cu(111) surfaces, which we investigated with femtosecond time-resolved two-photon photoemission.

Abstract Attosecond chronoscopy is central to the understanding of ultrafast electron dynamics from gas to condensed phase with attosecond temporal resolution. It has, however, not yet been able to determine the timing of individual partial waves, and steering their contribution has been a substantial challenge. Here, we develop a polarization-skewed attosecond chronoscopy to reveal their roles from the angle-resolved photoionization phase shifts in rare gas atoms. By scanning the relative polarization angle between an extreme-ultraviolet attosecond pulse train and a phase-locked near-infrared laser field serving as a partial wave meter, we break the cylindrical symmetry and observe an emission direction dependent phase shift in the photoionized electron momenta. The experimental observations are well supported by numerical simulations using the R-matrix with time-dependence method, and by analytical analysis using the soft-photon approximation. Our symmetry-resolved, partial-wave analysis identifies the transition rate and phase shifts of each individual ionization pathway in the attosecond photoelectron emission dynamics. Our findings provide critical insights into the ubiquitous attosecond optical timer and the underlying attosecond photoionization dynamics, thereby offer new perspectives for the control, manipulation, and exploration of ultrafast electron dynamics in complex systems.
