Abstract

We show that correlated dynamics in wave packets of doubly excited helium can be followed in real time by a pump-probe setup based on two-photon interferometry. This approach promises to map the evolution of the two-electron wave packet onto experimentally easily accessible non-coincident single electron spectra.

Notes

  1. 1.

    Such as single ionization or ejection of one electron by each pulse.

  2. 2.

    We obtain the autoionizing DES as isolated states by exterior complex scaling, cf. [12].
