Atoms and molecules in strong fields and how to observe times and phases — •Manfred Lein — Institute of Theoretical Physics, Leibniz University Hannover

The interaction of strong laser fields with atoms and molecules leads to a number of nonlinear, i.e., multiphoton processes such as above-threshold ionization, high-harmonic generation, or frustrated tunnel ionization. This talk reviews the fundamental mechanisms and theoretical methods related to these processes. We will also review schemes for observing the spatiotemporal properties of strong-field dynamics, including for example ionization times, target structure, and the phases of electron wave packets.
