    Measuring the photoelectron emission delay in the molecular frame

    How long does it take to emit an electron from an atom? This question has intrigued scientists for decades. As such emission times are in the attosecond regime, the advent of attosecond metrology using ultrash...

    Kinematically complete experimental study of Compton scattering at helium atoms near the threshold

    Compton scattering is one of the fundamental interaction processes of light with matter. When discovered1, it was described as a billiard-type collision of a photon ‘kicking’ a quasi-free electron. With decreasin...
