Enhancing the Power of Attosecond Spectroscopy

A team of physicists has extended the attosecond transient absorption spectroscopy (ATAS) theory. By extending ATAS theory, the team shows that this spectroscopy approach has sufficient resolution to “see” the follow-up decoherence of electron motion caused by a molecule’s nuclear rearrangement.
