Summary
The primary quantum process behind many phenomena in our daily lives is the light-driven motion of electrons. Important examples of this include photosynthesis, vision, vitamin D synthesis from sunlight, DNA damage by UV light, and more. As a first step towards developing a better understanding of such phenomena, it is important investigate and harness the electronic motions inside atoms and simple molecules with light pulses. However, the electrons are extremely fast, and can move on the timescale of an attosecond – a billionth of a billionth of a second! To capture the images of what transpi
