Interrogating Molecules.
Science 322, 1207 (2008)
Harnessing Attosecond Science in the Quest for Coherent X-rays.
Science 317, 775 (2007)
The prospects for coherent sources at very
short wavelengths - even possibly in the hard-x-ray
region of the spectrum - have brightened with the ability
to manipulate electron dynamics on attosecond time scales.
Nature Physics 3, 270 (2007); LFW, May 2007
The attosecond recollision of an
electron plucked from a molecule during
the process of high harmonic generation can be
used as a very sensitive probe of intramolecular dynamics.
