We have performed calculations of attosecond laser-atom interactions for laser intensities where interesting two and three photon effects become relevant. In particular, we examine the case of hole burning in the initial orbital. Hole burning is present when the laser pulse duration is shorter than the classical radial period because the electron preferentially absorbs the photon near the nucleus. We also examine how 3 photon Raman process can lead to a time delay in the outgoing electron for the energy near one photon absorption. For excitation out of the hydrogen $2s$ state, an intensity of $2.2times 10^{16}$ W/cm$^2$ leads to a 6 attosecond delay of the outgoing electron. We argue that this delay is due to the hole burning in the initial state.

In light-pulsed atom interferometry, the phase accumulated by atoms depends on the effective wave vector of the absorbed photons. In this work, we proposed a theory model to analyses the effective wave vector of photons in structured light. As for mo
nochromatic optical field, a transverse confinement could lead to diffraction. We put forward that in light-atom interaction, the atom wave function could also provide a transverse confinement thus affect the effective wave vector of the absorbed photons. We calculated the relative shift of the photon effective wave vector when an atom with a Gaussian wave function absorbs one photon at the waist in a Gaussian beam. This shift could lead to a systematic effect related to atom spatial distribution in high precision experiment based on light-pulsed atom interferometry.
We propose a method to exploit high finesse optical resonators for light assisted coherent manipulation of atomic ensembles, overcoming the limit imposed by the finite response time of the cavity. The key element of our scheme is to rapidly switch th
e interaction between the atoms and the cavity field with an auxiliary control process as, for example, the light shift induced by an optical beam. The scheme is applicable to many different atomic species, both in trapped and free fall configurations, and can be adopted to control the internal and/or external atomic degrees of freedom. Our method will open new possibilities in cavity-aided atom interferometry and in the preparation of highly non-classical atomic states.
Multi-electron dynamics in atoms and molecules very often occur on sub- to few-femtosecond timescales. The available intensities of extreme-ultraviolet (XUV) attosecond pulses have previously only allowed the time-resolved investigation of two-photon
, two-electron interactions. Here we demonstrate attosecond control over double and triple ionization of argon atoms involving the absorption of up to five XUV photons. In an XUV-pump XUV-probe measurement using a pair of attosecond pulse trains (APTs), the Ar$^{2+}$ ion yield exhibits a weak delay dependence, showing that its generation predominantly results from the sequential emission of two electrons by photoabsorption from the two APTs. In contrast, the Ar$^{3+}$ ion yield exhibits strong modulations as a function of the delay, which is a clear signature of the simultaneous absorption of at least two XUV photons. The experimental results are well reproduced by numerical calculations that provide detailed insights into the ionization dynamics. Our results open up new opportunities for the investigation and control of multi-electron dynamics and complex electron correlation mechanisms on extremely short timescales.
Presented are magnetization measurements on a crystal of Cr7Ni antiferromagnetic rings. Irradiation with microwaves at frequencies between 1 and 10 GHz leads to observation of very narrow resonant photon absorption lines which are mainly broadened by
hyperfin interactions. A two-pulse hole burning technique allowed us to estimate the characteristic energy diffusion time.
Normalized correlation functions provide expedient means for determining the photon-number properties of light. These higher-order moments, also called the normalized factorial moments of photon number, can be utilized both in the fast state classifi
cation and in-depth state characterization. Further, non-classicality criteria have been derived based on their properties. Luckily, the measurement of the normalized higher-order moments is often loss-independent making their observation with lossy optical setups and imperfect detectors experimentally appealing. The normalized higher-order moments can for example be extracted from the photon-number distribution measured with a true photon-number-resolving detector or accessed directly via manifold coincidence counting in the spirit of the Hanbury Brown and Twiss experiment. Alternatively, they can be inferred via homodyne detection. Here, we provide an overview of different kind of state classification and characterization tasks that take use of normalized higher-order moments and consider different aspects in measuring them with free-traveling light.
