Abstract

When an intense laser interacts with a gas of atoms, high-order harmonics are generated. In the time domain, this radiation forms a train of extremely short light pulses, of the order of 100 attoseconds. Attosecond pulses enable the study of electron dynamics in atoms and molecules using pump-probe techniques. This presentation will highlight key steps in attosecond science.

Anne L'Huillier is professor in physics at the University of Lund. She received the Nobel prize in physics 2023.

Equity, diversity and inclusion in academia
