    Airborne high spectral resolution lidar observation of pollution aerosol during EUCAARI-LONGREX
    (Göttingen : Copernicus, 2013) Groß, S.; Esselborn, M.; Abicht, F.; Wirth, M.; Fix, A.; Minikin, A.
    Airborne high spectral resolution lidar observations over Europe during the EUCAARI-LONGREX field experiment in May 2008 are analysed with respect to the optical properties of continental pollution aerosol. Continental pollution aerosol is characterized by its depolarisation and lidar ratio. Over all, the measurements of the lidar ratio and the particle linear depolarization ratio of pollution aerosols provide a narrow range of values. Therefore, this data set allows for a distinct characterization of the aerosol type "pollution aerosol" and thus is valuable both to distinguish continental pollution aerosol from other aerosol types and to determine mixtures with other types of aerosols.

    Attosecond time-resolved photoelectron holography
    ([London] : Nature Publishing Group UK, 2018) Porat, G.; Alon, G.; Rozen, S.; Pedatzur, O.; Krüger, M.; Azoury, D.; Natan, A.; Orenstein, G.; Bruner, B.D.; Vrakking, M. J.J.; Dudovich, N.
    Ultrafast strong-field physics provides insight into quantum phenomena that evolve on an attosecond time scale, the most fundamental of which is quantum tunneling. The tunneling process initiates a range of strong field phenomena such as high harmonic generation (HHG), laser-induced electron diffraction, double ionization and photoelectron holography - all evolving during a fraction of the optical cycle. Here we apply attosecond photoelectron holography as a method to resolve the temporal properties of the tunneling process. Adding a weak second harmonic (SH) field to a strong fundamental laser field enables us to reconstruct the ionization times of photoelectrons that play a role in the formation of a photoelectron hologram with attosecond precision. We decouple the contributions of the two arms of the hologram and resolve the subtle differences in their ionization times, separated by only a few tens of attoseconds.
