Title: Coherent Control of the Energy and Angular Distribution of Autoionized Electrons

R. van Leeuwen, M.L. Bajema, and R.R. Jones

Abstract:

Non-stationary, autoionizing wavepackets have been produced by exposing calcium Rydberg atoms to a pair of identical phase-coherent sub-picosecond laser pulses. The energy and angular distribution and time of ejection of electrons has been altered by changing the relative phase and delay between the two laser pulses.
