More understanding of matter-light interactions
01 June, 2012Double ionisation events can now be observed in the time scale of attoseconds (one billionth of a billionth of a second). Physicists have also shown that these ionisation events occur earlier than thought - a key factor to improving knowledge of correlated electron dynamics, which involve two electrons and their interactions with each other.
