Abstract

Chemical Physics When a burst of light ejects an electron from an atom, the later detection of two charged particles masks a great deal of intermittent quantum mechanical complexity. Villeneuve et al. provide a striking look at the wavelike properties of the electron just as it emerges from neon, expelled by two photons from an attosecond pulse train in a strong infrared field. The phase distribution displays the characteristic three-node structure of an f-wave, which the Stark shift from the strong field appears to select with a single magnetic quantum number of 0.
