U.S.-Netherlands Cooperative Research: Dynamics of Electron Waves

点击翻译按钮获取中文摘要

This two-year award for U.S.-Netherlands cooperative research in atomic physics involves Francis Robicheaux and John Shaw of Auburn University, and L.D. Noordam at the FOM Institute for Atomic and Molecular Physics (AMOLF) in Amsterdam, The Netherlands. The objective of the research is to study the physics of time dependent atomic processes, linking the efforts of the experimental femto-second atomic physics group at AMOLF and the atomic theory group at Auburn University. The main focus of the research will be on the behavior of electron wave packets on alkali atoms in strong fields. The collaboration takes advantage of the US strength in theory and the experimental insights and data of the Dutch group.
