Attosecond Pulse Trains, RABBITT and Applications in Ultrafast Physics

Explore the fascinating world of attosecond pulse trains (APT) and their applications in a one-hour colloquium presented by Pierre Agostini, Emeritus Professor at Ohio State University. Delve into the origins of APT from high harmonics and learn about the RABBITT technique for determining spectral phase. Discover the physics behind APT and RABBITT, and examine their widespread use over the past two decades. Gain insights into cutting-edge applications developed at Ohio State, including photoionization delays and the recent timing of non-sequential double ionization. Conclude with a glimpse into the future of attosecond science, discussing the emergence of zeptoseconds in photoionization delays and the potential of high-power isolated attosecond pulses at free-electron lasers.
