Attosecond snapshots of valence electrons
Chemical reactions are triggered by the dynamics of valence electrons in molecular orbitals. These motions typically unfold on a subfemtosecond scale and have eluded real-time access until now. Attosecond spectroscopy (an attosecond is 10
−18
seconds), first applied to tracking electronic transitio...
