    Robust transverse structures in rescattered photoelectron wavepackets and their consequences
    (Bristol : IOP Publ., 2020) Bredtmann, T.; Patchkovskii, S.
    Initial-state symmetry has been under-appreciated in strong-field spectroscopies, where laser fields dominate the dynamics. We demonstrate numerically that the transverse photoelectron phase structure, arising from the initial-state symmetry, is robust in strong-field rescattering, and has pronounced effects on strong-field photoelectron spectra. Interpretation of rescattering experiments need to take these symmetry effects into account. In turn, robust transverse photoelectron phase structures may enable attosecond sub-Ångström super-resolution imaging with structured electron beams.

    General Time-Dependent Configuration-Interaction Singles II: The Atomic Case
    (Woodbury, NY : Inst., 2022-10-10) Carlström, Stefanos; Bertolino, Mattias; Dahlström, Jan Marcus; Patchkovskii, Serguei
    We present a specialization of the grid-based implementation of the time-dependent configuration-interaction singles described in the preceding paper [S. Carlström et al., preceding paper, Phys. Rev. A 106, 043104 (2022)]. to the case of spherical symmetry. We describe the intricate time propagator in detail and conclude with a few example calculations. Among these, of note are high-resolution photoelectron spectra in the vicinity of the Fano resonances in photoionization of neon and spin-polarized photoelectrons from xenon, in agreement with recent experiments.

    Towards time resolved core level photoelectron spectroscopy with femtosecond x-ray free-electron lasers
    (College Park, MD : Institute of Physics Publishing, 2008) Pietzsch, A.; Föhlisch, A.; Beye, M.; Deppe, M.; Hennies, F.; Nagasono, M.; Suljotil, E.; Wurth, W.; Gahl, C.; Dörich, K.; Melnikov, A.
    We have performed core level photoelectron spectroscopy on a W(110) single crystal with femtosecond XUV pulses from the free-electron laser at Hamburg (FLASH). We demonstrate experimentally and through theoretical modelling that for a suitable range of photon fluences per pulse, time-resolved photoemission experiments on solid surfaces are possible. Using FLASH pulses in combination with a synchronized optical laser, we have performed femtosecond time-resolved core-level photoelectron spectroscopy and observed sideband formation on the W 4f lines indicating a cross correlation between femtosecond optical and XUV pulses. © IOP Publishing Ltd and Deutsche Physikalische Gesellschaft.

    Interference in strong-field ionization of a two-centre atomic system
    (College Park, MD : Institute of Physics Publishing, 2008) Ansari, Z.; Böttcher, M.; Manschwetus, B.; Rottke, H.; Sandner, W.; Verhoef, A.; Lezius, M.; Paulus, G.G.; Saenz, A.; Milošević, D.B.
    Strong-field photoionization of argon dimers by a few-cycle laser pulse is investigated using electron-ion coincidence momentum spectroscopy. The momentum distribution of the photoelectrons exhibits interference due to the emission from the two atomic argon centres, in analogy with a Young's doubleslit experiment. However, a simulation of the dimer photoelectron momentum spectrum based on the atomic spectrum supplemented with a theoretically derived interference term leads to distinct deviations from the experimental result. The deviations may have their origin in a complex electron dynamics during strong-field ionization of the Ar2 dimer. © IOP Publishing Ltd and Deutsche Physikalische Gesellschaft.
