Produktbeschreibung
In the framework of this book a new setup for
attosecond time-resolved measurements is described an
characterized. This new apparatus was utilized to
study ionization dynamics in rare gas atoms. In
particular strong field ionization processes in neon
atoms and the Auger decay of krypton and xenon atoms
following the creation of vacancy states in the 3d
and 4d shell respectively. It is shown that the
electronic relaxation occurs through different decay
channels, each involving cascades of sequential steps
which
are followed in their native temporal succession.
This new method is called "Ionization Chronoscopy"
and gives further evidence that time-resolved
experiments in the attosecond regime will become a
powerful tool for investigations in atomic physics.
Autorenporträt
Dr. Thorsten Uphues born in Verl (Germany), studied physics at
the University of Bielefeld and graduated in
attosecond metrology. In June 2008 he received the
Otto-Hahn-Medal of the Max-Planck-Society for his contributions
to the field of time-resolved x-ray physics.
